| The Kentucky Girls STEM Collaborative is holding its first annual conference to bring together educators, industry, girl-serving organizations, and government to explore ways to work together to increase the number of Kentucky girls interested in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) careers. We will introduce professionals to practices that increase the likelihood that girls will enroll and succeed in STEM courses and continue into STEM careers. The conference will feature diversity equity expert, Jo Sanders, as well as other prominent female speakers in the area of STEM. The conference is free. Continental breakfast and lunch will be provided. Deadline for registration: Monday, June 1, 2009. |
