Community Event Strategy
Our commitment is to bring relevant thought leaders to students and educators, where they live. We are utilizing a systematic and strategic outreach approach to engage stakeholders in all of our 40 districts across the nation. Research has time and again proven that our great nation is at risk on a variety of levels. We recognize that immediate, innovative and on-going solutions are needed to solve our most difficult social, economic national and global competitiveness problems. For that reason the National Minority Technology Council is offering opportunities to business, government, education, and community leaders to join us as we embark upon what we believe will be a ground breaking and transformative integrated STEM-CTE event series.
Conference Purpose

Fueled by our nation's focus on STEM (science,
technology, engineering and math) and U.S.
competitiveness, Career and Technical Education
(CTE) is emerging as a systematic platform for
education-industry collaboration and exploration.
Our Discover STEM-CTE District event
"roadshow" provides career options to members
of those communities currently disenfranchised
to our growing economy. Minority secondary and
postsecondary students need to complete their
education and find meaningful careers. Industry
and government are both needing highly skilled
workers for opportunities now unfilled. It is
necessary for us to forge new and active
partnerships to bridge this gap.
National Leadership Sponsorship Program utilizing Public/Private Cooperative Agreements Our recommendation for public/private
cooperative agreements to carry out this
important work is based on the many Federal,
State, and Local mandates to better educate our
nation's populace on the importance of career
exploration in STEM and CTE careers.
We are expecting stakeholder involvement and
will facilitate inter-agency, inter-state
participation to bring greater cost-effectiveness,
economies of scale, access to external resources
and greater political influence through strength in
numbers.
Our belief is industry works best in concert with
government and inclusion is the only escape from
the economic crisis found in the heart of our most
urban centers across the US.
The National Minority Technology Council’s Looking Forward Research &
Development Program has developed a new look at the convergence
between STEM and Career and Technical Education. Our “STEM is in
everything” approach builds relevance to a Cradle to Career approach.
