RAMSP Value to K-12 Districts

“RAMSP is the strategic advantage in preparing students for STEM careers and building pathways to economic success in southeast Minnesota through experience, exploration, connections, academic excellence, and applicable curriculum through centralized efficiencies.”

RAMSP Value to Higher Education & Vocational Education“RAMSP is the strategic advantage to ccollaborate with regional K-12 educators to expand methods of teaching strategies and resources to close knowledge, skills, and abilities gaps while stimulating a mindset of exploration for students. Provide career pathway alignment that better serves learners, educators, leaders, and employers. Improve career readiness for graduates and increase job placement in STEM-related fields. Stay on top of employer needs, economic trends, industry skills and technology, and expose students to post-secondary opportunities.”

“RAMSP is the strategic advantage to collaborate with stakeholders in the education pipeline to find solutions based on workforce demands and build the local STEM workforce needed for tomorrow. Promote equitable opportunities to develop students that are interested in and ready for STEM careers. Engage with local student talent and motivated educators in the region. Create a cyclical investment in college and career readiness, which leads to positive long term economic impacts and an increased tax base for your business and community.”

RAMSP Value to Stakeholders
