In-service Training

We provide one day of free in-service training to organizations who purchase a STARLAB. This can be a group of up to 24 people (or less). Usually this is a full school day (9:00 A.M.-3:00 P.M.), this is negotiable. We have thrown in an extra day if the distance is short. Otherwise we charge $ 1200.00 per day of instruction plus expenses (Travel, lodging, etc.). If an individual seeks training, we usually work them into an in-service being done for someone else (With permission of all concerned). This is usually free with the individual paying their own expense. We have had some people who requested to have their in-service done out of their geographic location. An example: one small group (of 3) took a weekend in the Smokey Mts. with Friday as an in-service day with STARLAB and then they used Saturday for R & R. We set up STARLAB in a hotel. 

Space requirements for the STARLAB

The Giant dome dimensions are: 13.5 feet high, Dome has a diameter of 22 feet. Technically, it can be squeezed into an area 27 feet square 729 square feet and with an unobstructed ceiling height of 13+ feet. But that is really too small of a space. I feel cramped in any area less than 34 feet square. (about 1200 square feet).

The Standard dome is similar but it has a dome diameter of 16 feet with height requirements of 10.5 feet. It can be squeezed into a classroom of 23 feet by 25 feet and with an unobstructed ceiling height of 10+ feet. Ideally , we prefer more space and with a carpeted floor since teachers and trainees will be sitting on the floor.

Climate control is essential : Air conditioning during summer and warmth during winter.

Teachers and trainees should be asked to wear casual clothing on the STARLAB in-service day as they will be crawling around and sitting on the floor part of the time.
