The ITEST National STEM Learning Resource Center, in partnership with ITEST PIs and STEM professionals who work with ITEST projects, hosts a quarterly public webinar series designed to provide guidance counselors and educators with resources and strategies to increase student awareness of STEM career opportunities. The series features STEM professionals speaking about their fields of expertise, how they became interested in this career, and how their work contributes positively to society. The session will include recommendations for transferring these learnings to increase students’ engagement and motivation in STEM learning.

The webinars will be archived for future access, and topics will include the four major areas of ITEST program content focus: Bioscience, Computer Science, Engineering, and Environmental Science.

The next webinar topic will be announced closer to the event.
