Strengthening the Roots of STEM: Professionals and educators partnering to introduce students to real-world STEM applications
According to the National Science Board, nurturing a future science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) workforce is crucial if the United States is to remain competitive in the global economy.

One of its key pillars is public-private partnerships that will impact education from Pre-K to high school.
A great example of such a partnership is PDCA member Engineering Consulting Services (ECS) and its recent collaboration with Cognia, a global non-profit organization focused on improving educational opportunities for all learners.
