Assembly Bill 592 mandates the Department of Public Instruction (DPI) to collaborate with nonprofit organizations to create and implement a professional development program for science teachers in grades K-12 during the 2025-26 and 2026-27 school years. The program will include opportunities for teachers to receive training, and if any science equipment is involved in the training, DPI is authorized to provide this equipment at no cost to the participating teachers for classroom use.

Additionally, the bill requires DPI to submit a report to the legislature by October 1, 2027, detailing the number of teachers who participated in the program, the science equipment distributed, and the organizations involved in providing the professional development. Furthermore, DPI must request funding from the Joint Committee on Finance within 45 days of the bill's enactment to support this initiative, utilizing funds allocated in the 2025 Wisconsin Act 15 for professional development for science teachers.
