Last Thursday, about 60 of our staff & students attended the 2017 Youth Leadership Summit, a 1-day conference focusing on STEM-related careers and pathways, sponsored by SIATech.  Approximately 200 students from all over northern California attended the summit which took place at Skyline College in San Francisco.  The students were able to learn from various industry leaders in technology and businesses in the Bay Area and Silicon Valley about their companies and best practices in their respective fields.  Also, students were given the opportunity to learn about different career pathways and areas of study from actual Skyline College instructors.  In addition, students were able to take an in-depth tour of the school’s beautiful campus and facilities.  Our students had the added benefit of traveling in style on a luxury chartered bus to and from the event.  Overall, the event was a major success with our students gaining a lot of valuable information and motivation to move forward in a positive direction!
