In 2012, the Social Impact Exchange listed PLTW as one of America’s top 100 performing nonprofit organizations; in 2013, the CEO-led initiative, Change the Equation, named PLTW one of only four nationally scalable, high-quality STEM programs; and in 2014, the CLASSY Awards, working in partnership with the United Nations Foundation, awarded PLTW the top honor in the category of Education Advancement.

He is also a regular contributor to the Huffington Post.

In the forward to Dr. Bertram’s new book – One Nation Under Taught – out November 2014, Steve Forbes, Chairman and Editor-in-Chief of Forbes Media, writes, “Dr. Bertram is no armchair reformer.
