The Trump administration has prioritized Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) Education. The Summary of the 2018 State-Federal STEM Education Summit, White House, Office of Science and Technology Policy, highlighted the following key goals that are both transparent and achievable: By forging stronger connections for students betw... een the worlds of education and work; focusing on innovation and entrepreneurship; integrating computer science principals; and improving access to STEM programs for all Americans, including women, minorities, persons with disabilities, and people in rural areas, the Trump Administration has underscored the importance of STEM Education to the development of the future American workforce (p.3). nCASEs personalized training programs and services are built upon these same workforce development goals and objectives.
