Fraser Institute Education Programs
Welcome to the Fraser Institute Education Programs' Virtual Booth
The Fraser Institute's Centre for Education Programs offers a variety of engaging and educational programs for teachers and students across Canada, offered at no cost to teachers or their students. We offer both virtual and in-person teacher workshops to provide engaging tools to teach economics in your online, in-person or hybrid classroom. Our workshops cover the economic way of thinking through topics such as entrepreneurship, environmental economics, pop culture, public policy and more! We also provide a variety of interactive tools and digital lesson plans online to expand learning in the classroom. Not only do we have opportunities for you, but we also offer programs for your students! For you and your students, we offer high school field trips that are one-day, fun-filled programs to encourage students to explore the economic way of thinking.
Check out our upcoming events below or visit our website for our upcoming events, as well as a variety of interactive tools and lesson plans online to expand learning in the classroom. You can also download our flyers (attached documents) to review upcoming opportunities and to share with your colleagues.
