Just like the programs of exploration at NASA, the success of your corporate mission depends on vision and individuals working together toward that goal. Challenger Learning Center of Maine invites you to become part of a unique program designed to open up lines of communication among employees, creating dynamic and productive teamwork. Using high-tech tools and an amazingly realistic simulated space mission, the Corporate Mission program will help employees and employers face challenges and solve problems not unlike those experienced by astronauts in space.

Success depends on effective communication and problem solving skills. Crew members must rely upon each other for vital information required to perform their specific responsibilities. Sound familiar?

So whether your organization is full of people who grew up on Star Trek and longed to push the buttons, or if you're looking for an activity in which the events of the day have specific applications for employees when they return to Earth, we invite you to participate in a Corporate Mission at the Challenger Learning Center of Maine.
