"360 Degrees of Impact" 



As a part of our company outreach and "360 degrees of impact", Silicon Forest Electronics supports impactful organizations like nConnect. nConnect was founded in 2005 with the simple and pragmatic idea to provide mentors to encourage and support students taking rigorous courses such as Advanced Placement Courses. By pairing engineers, scientists, and other professionals from the high tech sector with small groups of students taking AP classes, nConnect supports students taking rigorous AP classes with a mentor who provides both an important relationship and who brings greater relevance to coursework.

Silicon Forest Electronics' VP & General Manager, Jay Schmidt, recently presented information to high school students involved with nConnect's Saturday program at the WSU-Vancouver campus. Jay shared information on careers and growth of the Aerospace and Unmanned Systems industries, and gave students visual examples of the types of career opportunities that may be available for technical professionals in those growing industries.

Thank you to the nConnect staff for allowing Silicon Forest Electronics to help make a positive and profound impact for the nConnect participants!
