How to Join Project Lead The Way

Project Lead The Way (PLTW) is spreading rapidly across the United States. Apply now to help prepare your students to become successful in medicine. Applications and a step-by-step guide to joining PLTW are available.

Here is a summary of the three-step application process.

Step One: Submit District and School Applications

Applications for joining PLTW are available.

It’s possible your district, if not your school, is already registered, so please check before registering. If your district is already registered, you need only register your school.

See Key Deadlines for more information.

Step Two: Sign an Agreement

After your application is accepted, your district will be sent a School District Agreement that must be signed by the superintendent and returned no later than the date listed here.

Step Three: Calculate the Cost

PLTW curricula are provided free to high schools and middle schools. Certain hardware, software, and professional development programs are required to put the program into operation. We offer these tools through our yearly PLTW Purchasing Manual, which is available on our home page.

The exact cost of launching a PLTW program at your school depends on many variables, including which classes are offered and how many students are enrolled. See “Calculating the Cost” to find out more. Once you have all the materials necessary, and you have trained your staff, you can launch Project Lead The Way in your school.
