As educational pathways evolve, new partnerships emerge, and institutions experiment with innovative approaches to teaching, learning, and workforce preparation, there is a growing need to connect research, evidence, and practice across sectors. The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine will host a two-day summit exploring the changing landscape of postsecondary STEM education, pathways, and opportunities for learner success.

Drawing on findings from National Academies consensus reports, as well as recent research, emerging evidence, and evidence-based programs and initiatives from organizations across the country, the summit will explore what we know, what is changing, and where new opportunities and questions are emerging. The event will bring together leaders and practitioners from higher education, workforce development, government, industry, philanthropy, professional societies, and other organizations. Through plenary conversations, presentations, and interactive discussions, participants will share insights, highlight promising approaches, build connections, and consider opportunities for continued cross-sector collaboration to strengthen postsecondary STEM pathways and outcomes.

Additional details, including the agenda and registration information, are forthcoming.
