National Alliance for Partnerships in Equity Education Foundation believes that if women, underrepresented minorities and persons with disabilities were prepared to work in STEM careers in proportion to their current workforce engagement, high tech labor demands by business could be met, U.S. global competiveness would improve, global challenges could be better addressed, and women’s economic power would increase, leading to stronger families and communities. Join Mimi Lufkin, NAPE’s CEO, and other panelists for “The K-16 Pipeline: Education to Employability” session at STEM Solutions 2012 on Friday, June 29 where they will examine the K-16 pipeline and how educators and employers can better support STEM careers.
