Unlocking the power of female leaders for a competitive and innovative future in STEM
Occupations in the fields of science, technology, engineering and mathematics are expected to continue to outpace non-STEM jobs over the next decade. Yet while women make up more than half of all workers with post-secondary degrees, only slightly more than a quarter of them are in core STEM fields. The Women in STEM Leadership Program encourages and equips women at all stages of their careers with the skills necessary to advance as productive and valuable employees in their chosen STEM fields.
Call 1-631-216-7518 or fill out the form below for detailed program information: Learn more & apply here.
