Our Approach
We Are All In
We're your guide and advisory partner in the education space. When we work with brands, we're all in, and we treat your initiative like our own. We work with a select number of brands, so your brand gets our full attention and strategic guidance.
Designed for Success
Each experience is anchored in the STEM Made Simple Method, an approach shaped by over 10 years of K-12 STEM education experience. Designed by founder Aspen Holland, the STEM Made Simple Method is equal parts creative and analytical, creating experiences that are hands-on, engaging, and one of a kind.
Unparalleled Service
We're detail oriented, making sure we get it right for our clients, from the experience itself to how we communicate every step of the way. We take planning and managing the experience off your plate, so you never have to worry, and can trust it is in good hands.
Brand and Corporate Events
From brand activations to employee and family STEM days, we create hands-on STEM moments that bring your event to life and stay with kids long after.
What we specialize in:
Community Impact Initiatives
Move from STEM sponsorship to STEM ownership with a signature STEM initiative your organization becomes known for.
Workforce Development Programs
Turn your industry expertise into hands-on field trips and workshops for K-12 students that build the next generation of talent.
Our Services
For organizations and brands ready to go all in on STEM education.
You have the vision. Maybe even a STEM initiative somewhere in your strategic plan. But it keeps getting pushed from one 5-year plan to the next because ownership keeps shifting and no one has the STEM expertise to move it forward.
At STEM Made Simple, we turn those ideas into action and take your brand from STEM supporter to championing STEM for the next generation.
-
Our most comprehensive service.
For brands and organizations that want us to handle it all, from strategy through execution.
Whether it's a single branded activation or an ongoing initiative like a Corporate Social Responsibility program or Workforce Development pipeline, we apply the SMS Method to design and produce the entire STEM experience for you.
We work alongside your team and a handpicked network of contractors to transform your vision into an impactful experience that becomes part of your brand’s culture, impact, and legacy.
-
For brands and organizations that want an experienced STEM education expert guiding their planning, while your team leads the execution.
We provide strategy, design direction, and expert oversight, whether you're shaping a single activation, program or building toward an ongoing initiative, so nothing is left unconsidered and the process stays on track.
Most brands who begin with this service move into Full-Service Design and Production as their needs evolve.
-
Every new client begins here. The audit is a one-time diagnostic session for brands interested in or currently running STEM or community impact initiatives. We start with a short questionnaire to understand where your brand and initiative stands today, then evaluate it to identify exactly where the gaps are, from strategy to execution to brand alignment. You'll walk through the findings with our team, along with our strategic recommendations, and leave with a clear action plan you can implement to close those gaps and build a STEM initiative that becomes a true asset to your brand
