What distinguishes the EAN from other K-12 outreach programs is the focus on developing presentation and leadership skills of the ambassadors.  The EAN teaches advanced presentation techniques, such as the assertion-evidence approach, that empower ambassadors not only to make outstanding outreach presentations for their Engineering Ambassador visits to K-12 schools but also to create outstanding engineering presentations for their technical courses, internships, and careers.

I learned that engineers are more than just people who build—they’re problem-solvers, creators, and have one of the most important roles in society.” ~Emily (8th grade)
