ABOUT
STEM JOBS
5
Project Lead The Way (PLTW) is the nation’s leading provider of K-12 STEM programs.
A 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, PLTW serves more than 6,500 schools in all 50 states and the District of Columbia.
The U.S. Department of Commerce estimates that STEM jobs will grow 17 % by 2018
By 2018, the U.S. will have more than 1.2 million unfilled STEM jobs because there will not be enough qualified workers to fill them.

TESTIMONIALS
27
“I'm ahead of schedule in my major. All of the experience [the engineering] classes gave me helped prepare me for what I do everyday in school. In fact, I feel really prepared for everything I face in college.”
“[A]ll the things we have been learning in my University Physics and Aerospace are things that you have already taught me.”
“Please let your current [students] know how
important these classes are that they are taking, for if
they can excel in their studies now, college will be so much easier for them.”
