In December 2022, the U.S. Department of Education announcedthe “Raise the Bar: STEM Excellence for All Students” initiative, intended to “help implementand scale equitable, high-quality STEM education for all students from Pre-K to highereducation—regardless of background— to ensure their 21st century career readiness and globalcompetitiveness” [4]. One of three Raise the Bar goals is to “develop and support our [U.S.]STEM educators to join, grow, and stay in the STEM field” [4]. This goal targets one of the mostsignificant challenges facing the education field today: teacher recruitment and retention.The COVID-19 pandemic has magnified the teacher shortage in the U.S. Recent research by theNational Center for Education

Pre/post surveys and focus group interviews were conducted tocollect data from participants. Students strongly indicated that the program was an importantbridge between their undergraduate and graduate careers and that important knowledge, skills,and interests were developed as a result. One of the main self-perceived deficiencies of studentsentering the program was technical communication, and gains were achieved in this area bystructuring biweekly program-wide meetings around developing relevant skills.
