STEM technician career path for students. A path has a start, a direction and a destination. The assessment gives the direction, the career pages the destination, and the STEM Farm track the start at zero. Technician roles are the shortest path into STEM — a certificate and hands-on proof rather than a four-year degree — and reward practicality, detail, meticulousness and composure. Students choose classes, majors and programs years before they meet the daily work of a career; this shows the ordinary day first.
