We’re happy to be a leader among California firms in supporting You Be The Chemist!, an initiative by the Chemical Education Foundation that brings the wonder and fascination of chemistry and the chemical sciences to life for students, educators and even the industry itself.
The program includes activity guides, lesson plans and more that help students understand the “benefits and value of chemistry.”
Efforts like this are especially important in an increasingly ultra-competitive world market, where education is critically important to individual and national success. It’s also an important outreach in areas like California, where budget woes have made it increasingly difficult for educators and students alike on nearly all fronts. Efforts like YBTC are an excellent way to further young peoples’ education and exposure to all the excitement and opportunity offered by the world of science.
