10 weeks mentoring for young people aged 16-18
The STEM Ambassador Programme, in partnership with Brightside charity, is launching a national online mentoring scheme to support young people who are interested in STEM.
Available from end of February to May 2021, the scheme pairs each young person with a STEM Ambassador volunteer who is ready to support them with exploring STEM career options, helping them to feel more confident about their future. The mentoring will take place flexibly, through a moderated messaging system and all STEM Ambassadors are DBS or PVG checked as standard.
Young people will receive:
- 1:1 support and inspiration from a STEM Ambassador
- Support and resources to help them make informed decisions
- Training on how to use Brightside’s secure and moderated messaging system
