This is a stand alone evaluation of your CTE or STEM program by G² Advisors. Together, we will perform a SWOT analysis of your program, identifying the Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats to your program.
STEM and CTE programs are critical to a rounded education for students, and let G² help you complete a systems check for your District! Use this as an opportunity to check on your Perkins Grant compliance and also ensuring your school/district is well positioned for other grants and donations.
Consider a monthly check-in from a G² Advisor with your staff!

Working with Craig Griffie over the years has been great. He has helped us expose our industry into the classroom and especially note worthy is his ability to create excitement and passion within the students. His influence and partnership has allowed Hoppe Tree Service to enroll the nation’s first Arborist Youth Apprentice.
I have worked with Craig for years because his passion for connecting students with industry partners is contagious.
I’d be willing to write something on you and your work at Wauwatosa.
Peter has displayed enthusiasm and ingenuity in the integration of technology and hands-on learning experiences with his students. He leverages his network of partners in this experiential learning environment by hosting guest speakers and incorporating this information into design workshops where students can bring their own creativity to the table. I had the opportunity to speak with his class about controlled environmental agriculture and innovation in vertical farming through the use of their Flex Farm and was impressed by the level of engagement and interest in solving issues related to fresh food production.
