WHAT IS THE STACKS + JOULES PROGRAM?

Founded on the premise that any student can gain core competencies in computer
networks and programming when

fueled by their creative passions, Stacks & Joules emphasizes the following
approaches:

 
 


ENGAGE

By connecting with the creative passion of students, Stacks + Joules succeeds in
enticing youth to learn highly specialized, financially lucrative, and
immediately employable skills. 

Each lesson launches with hands-on activities, complete with instantly
gratifying results, constructive feedback and positive reinforcement. By
learning to program banks of wireless LEDs, students gain a deep understanding
of the fundamentals of computerized building automation systems. The capstone
project, writing code to synchronize the bulbs to music ensures that each
student masters the skills necessary for career success in building automation.
What seems like a game is actually building critical capabilities needed to
optimize the complex lighting and HVAC systems that are integral to modern
buildings.

 

 


SUPPORT

Stacks + Joules connects educational experts with prominent industry
professionals to provide rigorous yet accessible specialized training for both
students and teachers.

Founding educator J. Michael Conway brings over 20 years of experience as a
teacher/leader, dedicated to making high school mathematics and other complex
learning accessible to students who have not yet had the opportunity for
success. As a faculty coach, he has supported schools and teachers from across
the country with implementing project-based learning and other innovative yet
proven student-centered learning strategies.

 

 

 


EMPLOY

Stacks+Joules connects youth with well-paying, meaningful jobs that elevate
students towards certifications, degrees, and life-long advancement.

Our training enables placement in paid internships with local building
automation employers. Stacks+Joules stands by students, mentoring them during
internships and supporting them in securing full-time employment. Close industry
collaboration facilitates further education to meet the needs of employers and
develop skills integral to career success.

We leverage relationships with vocational programs, community colleges, and
universities to empower students to develop plans for furthering their education
and training. A high-paying job as a building automation system specialist is
the first solid rung on a far-reaching career ladder.
