About STEM Ambassadors
Our volunteers offer their time, passion, and energy to visit schools, colleges, and youth group organisations to deliver requests from teachers and youth group leaders who want to link STEM subjects to the real world of work.
Our volunteers do not need to have a background in education. We offer training and support to enable our Ambassadors to confidently deliver a range of activities to young people, including career talks. If you have a passion to inspire the next generation in STEM, whether you are self-employed or work for a small, medium, or large STEM organisation, you can join our Ambassador community! Educators can post requests for one of our volunteers via our online platform.
Supported by UK Research and Innovation.
