Paul discussed the CPP Polytechnic STEAM Academy in the episode. Here is the program's mission statement:
"The mission of CPP’s Polytechnic STEAM Academy is to provide a 'Brand-You' transformative educational experience for high school student students through technology-focused team projects. Participation in the Academy allows high school students in grades 9-12 to connect with students across the community and institutions, to collaborate with CPP and its industrial partners, and to create knowledge and content through team-based, hands-on projects and online courseware. Students in the academy are exposed to today’s cutting-edge technology and its social impact, learn about leading theories on diverse perspectives and inclusion, experience design thinking and creation first-hand, and practice essential skills necessary for the modern-day work environment such as team science, presentation and web-based communication."
