We just started a professional development program that’s a series of four 1/2 day classes (10-2:30) one Sat. a month for 4 months. We are grant subsidized and charge teachers $50 each for the whole course. We offer school district salary point credit (free) and are also able to offer course credit through a local univ. which costs students an additional $80.
Not nearly as extensive as what you’re doing, but may give you a feel. Our limit is 20 teachers/course and we’ve already got 4 on the waiting list for next session.
Best of luck,

We are developing a new teacher professional development program at our museum to include full day workshops and late afternoon programs and I would like to know if your museums charge for such programs for teachers. If so, what is your average program fee or registration fee? If you do not charge, how is your program funded?
I thank you all for your time and assistance.
