Role Models
Meet our latest role model!
What better way to find out whether courses, apprenticeships or a career in STEM or STEAMM (science, technology, engineering, arts, maths and medicine) is for you than to ask the individuals themselves? We interview students, apprentices and industry trainees about the course they’re on and the careers they hope to go on to when they leave. We also interview people working in these spaces about their interesting careers pathways.
