GeoComply has announced its partnership with the American Indian Science and Engineering Society (AISES) to support science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) education and employment for Indigenous peoples of North America and the Pacific Islands.

By partnering with AISES through education and employment programs, GeoComply aims to advance diversity, inclusion and equity in STEM, with a particular focus on the gaming industry.

“We’re looking forward to creating education and career opportunities for indigenous communities in North America at GeoComply,” says Lindsay Slader, GeoComply Managing Director of Gaming. “These communities make up nearly half of gaming operations in the US and can play a significant role in advancing STEM in those industries.”

“As our world becomes more advanced with technology and science, and our Tribal Nations continue to grow and flourish, our Indigenous students must understand how and why a STEM career can not only provide an amazing career, but can also provide opportunities to give back to our communities and our world”, says Dr. Johnny Poolaw the AISES Director of Student Success.

Today’s announcement underscores GeoComply’s commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion.

BMM Testlabs, the worldߣs original gaming test lab and product certification consultancy, is pleased to welcome Kordell Schrock as a paid summer intern, powered through BMMߣs Next Generation Initiative and the American Indian Science and Engineering Society (AISES). This partnership between BMM and AISES promotes opportunities for indigenous students in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) programs to work in a gaming laboratory and receive hands-on experience alongside BMMߣs team of expert test engineers.

Kordell Schrock, Engineering Intern, commented,:I am grateful for the opportunity to gain valuable and memorable work experience at BMMߣs Las Vegas headquarters this summer. When I joined my universityߣs STEM Scholars learning community my top goal was to join the workforce in the gaming industry. I even identified BMM Testlabs as my dream internship when I created my first individualized development plan in May 2019. I look forward to performing statistical analysis of game probabilities, reviewing system source code, and more with BMMߣs expert team of test engineers.

Schrock is a descendant of the Meskwaki Nation (Sac and Fox Tribe of the Mississippi in Iowa), and he is pursuing an undergraduate degree in Computer Science with a minor in Data Science from Iowa State University. He has previous internship experience with Workday, the National Security Agency (NSA), and a research fellowship at Stanford University. The paid summer internship at BMM Testlabs will last for a duration of ten weeks, beginning on June 1, 2023.
