This blog includes information, resources, and events to support, enhance, connect and build the Contra Costa Economic Partnership's STEM Workforce Initiative. We work to strengthen existing Linked Learning engineering academies and help other academies to create new engineering pathways. Project Lead The Way (PLTW) was chosen as the preferred curriculum in 2009 by a panel of industry partners and high school teachers who participated in CCEP's regional sector discussions.

Happy New School Year, PLTW East Bay!
My name is Tiffany E. Grant, and along with April Treece of the STEW Workforce Initiative of the Contra Costa Economic Partnership (CCEP), we focus on creating pathways in public education institutions to increase the workforce pipeline into STEM-related careers. PLTW partners with CCEP in the East Bay in forming dynamic partnerships with schools and businesses in Alameda, Contra Costa and Solano counties to increase the number and diversity of students achieving success in the STEM fields.
