WHAT IS FIRST? FIRST® (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology) is the most fantastic program out there that gives kids who want to join the STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) fields real-world, hands-on learning experience in areas such as problem-solving, working with a team, dealing with deadlines, and leadership. Along the way, life long self-confidence is gained and best friends are made.
