Education Programs FAQ
Are Burke Education programs a good fit for me?
Our programs have been designed primarily for Washington state youth learning in a variety of settings. Schools, homeschooling families, micro-schools, after school programs, community centers, early learning or childcare centers, camps and libraries are some of the organizations and groups that have utilized our programs. We have found that some of our programs have been a great fit for adult learning as well, and have been utilized by assisted living facilities and college classes.
If you have questions about whether a specific program is a good fit for your group, we are always happy to discuss your needs and help you find the best option for you. Reach out to us at burked@uw.edu.
