SPC Awarded Grant to Bolster STEM Workforce

Kudos to St. Petersburg College (SPC) for their recent win of a grant to bolster STEM workforces in technology innovation sectors.  Awarded by the U.S. Economic Development Administration (EDA), this grant is intended to strengthen training programs and apprenticeship opportunities to ensure that individuals can build careers in STEM fields in their own communities.  We are excited to see how SPC's Geospatial/Artificial Intelligence (AI) STEM Training Program (GSTP) comes to life!
