United States with morethan 11 thousand members. For more than 30 years, SHPE organized and hosted its premier, three-day leadership conference in the first week of August, known today as the National Institute forLeadership Advancement (NILA). As part of NILA, SHPE chapters send one of their electedrepresentatives, typically the chapter president, to be developed into a leader. After attendingNILA, the representatives, now leaders, would lead their chapter leadership and members towarda successful post-graduation transition into the STEM workforce (students) and career upward-mobility and positive impact within the Hispanic community (professionals). Throughout the first half of the past decade, NILA’s curriculum and overall design

Eventually, he decided to apply to Ph.D. programs.Preparing for the GRE proved fruitful, as he was admitted to and attended his first-choiceinstitution. Adam was excited about the proposition of being an independent researcher butperceived obtaining a Ph.D. as a hurdle to his ultimate goal. He wanted to work on ill-defineddesign problems. For Adam, choosing a research lab was predicated on finding a facultymember engaged in integrated-circuit (IC) design work.

While the disparity in education and employmentbetween people with and without disabilities may not be alarmingly large in the early careerstages, the gap is much larger as people progress past their early careers.
