The Lamp Post – Bridging The Divide of Education (Part 2)

Making Sense of Education And Careers for Women In The 21st Century.

The impact of STEM, diversity and the environment on 21st Century careers is not what it seems. Contrary to social culture and popular opinion, women’s careers are not at a disadvantage.

Many of the fields, and attributes, companies now look for in candidates are unique to, and favor, women. Listen in as we discuss what you need to know in part two of this DOE podcast.
