This partnership funding covered stipends to instructors to reach STEM lessons to secondary school students. The AVELA-Amazon partnership funding also covered expenses for hosting the AVELA-Amazon Scholarship Night. It included sessions on scholarship applications, essay writing, and breakout sessions, with support through food and prizes to keep attendees engaged and informed about scholarship opportunities.
In partnership with SPEEA, AVELA received a grant to host a series of STEM workshops. AVELA instructors led lessons on topics like Drone Building, CAD design, AI for Aerospace, Data Activism, and User Experience Research & Design. These workshops engaged participants in hands-on learning, providing both instructional time and office hours for additional support.
