In May 2024, the NEA in collaboration with Texas A&M University organised the NEA International Mentoring Workshop in Texas, United States.

The group also included five Japanese secondary school students who shared their country’s perspectives with the participants. Highly accomplished female professionals from Canada, Japan, Korea, the United States and the NEA joined the workshop as speakers and mentors to share their personal journeys, and to highlight the benefits and excitement of careers in STEM.
