Grades 3-5 | Featuring YES Engineering Rescue Shuttles 

STEM Next is accelerating our efforts to advance career-connected learning in afterschool and summer learning programs with our Career-Connected Learning Framework for Out-of-School Time Providers. Discover how hands-on engineering supports career awareness for youth in grades 3–5. This webinar features the YES Engineering Rescue Shuttles unit and free career resources that help youth build awareness about the skills, tools, and decisions professionals make in disaster response and recovery careers—from aeronautical engineers to power plant operators. Educators will leave with free and practical resources for integrating career exploration into engineering activities.

Attendees who complete the post-training survey will be entered into a raffle to receive a STEM kit for 20 youth.
