Investing in Our Future Leaders
The T3 Alaska program is free and open to all students at participating schools.
Travel Opportunities
The T3 Alaska program spans the entire state, providing T3 students the unique opportunity to visit communities around Alaska (and around the nation!) to learn about place-based problems and use their knowledge to solve community issues.
Community Partnerships & Benefits
We bring people together to strengthen our communities. Starting with high school, we prepare students with technical know-how and mental aptitude to succeed in post-secondary education and careers. We build relationships with community partners – businesses and industries – to open opportunities and connect with students.
Fall T3 Coaches Training Event
On September 5-8, 2024 we are hosting our annual Fall Upward Bound/T3 Instructor, Coach, and Administrator Training. This includes on-boarding, professional development, and advanced training on running sites, clubs, curriculum, processes, and more for coaches/teachers. There are two full days of training with travel days on each end.
Alaska Rural Energy Conference
The Alaska Rural Energy Conference is an annual event that gathers communities and experts to discuss energy projects, ideas, and solutions for Alaska’s rural areas. The 2024 conference will be held from October 2-4 in Fairbanks. T3 Alaska students will present at the event, with details from summer program story maps and Anan Bear Observatory project. In addition, T3 Alaska students will tour the college campus and participation in a poster session on October 1st, hosted by Alaska Center for Energy and Power (ACEP).
