Workforce Development Showcase and Internship Opportunity Info Session, October 8, 2025

We’re pleased to share that our Workforce Development Showcase and Internship Opportunity Info Session, held on October 8, 2025 at the University of California, Davis was a great success!

This year’s showcase featured 17 student posters from UC Davis, California State University-Sacramento , California Polytechnic State University-San Luis Obispo , and Sacramento City College highlighting the impressive research and hands-on experiences gained through the Northwest AI Hub, and support from the United States Department of War and National Science Foundation (NSF) ExLENT Program. The creativity and dedication displayed by our interns were truly inspiring.

We were also honored to welcome Roberson Bruce and Stephen Callahan, Director of the FabLab at the San Joaquin County Office of Education (SJCOE), who served as guest judges and selected the top three posters from this year’s presentations:
