This June, the Capital Area STEM Network (CASN) Center hosted its third annual SPARK Your Summer program. This initiative is designed to equip single mothers with hands-on skills that foster self-sufficiency and promote career readiness. Held in partnership with the East Baton Rouge Parish Library (EPRBL) and the Career and Technical Education Center (CTEC), SPARK offers participants a chance to explore foundational skills in automotive care, electrical work, HVAC, and hand tool safety.

The East Baton Rouge Parish Career and Technical Education Center (CTEC) is proud to celebrate the achievements of two outstanding students, Joshua Ross and Deldres Long, whose dedication, skills, and ambition earned them coveted spots in the ExxonMobil Summer Internship Program.

Celebrating its 10th year, the BASF Tech Academy introduces high school students to exciting careers in advanced manufacturing and energy.
