Virtual learning has skyrocketed over the last couple of years, and it’s hard to believe that it wasn’t always the norm. But at SHPE, we’ve been in the webinar game since 2018 with our latinXfactor program

LatinXfactor was designed to provide participants with specific information they can use it to excel as a student, a professional, and a leader. In 2023/2024 the latinXfactor was provided to IPCs as part of their package. SHPE identifies topics that are deemed of importance to provide support during the student life and/or provide preparation to be successful at our Convention. 

We are so pleased that our members never had to experience a gap in their pursuit of STEM excellence because of virtual programming like latinXfactor. This is what the #SHPEFamilia is all about: giving young Hispanics the tools they need to persist, grow, and thrive – no matter what.
