Techwuman STEM Ambassador programme

The Techwuman STEM Ambassador programme is designed to train those from the STEM industry to ‘give back’ by being role models allowing them to share their career pathways and knowledge.

Techwuman delivers activity days to primary schools across the UK to promote STEM at grass-root level. These are bespoke activity days, which allow pupils the opportunity to meet our STEM Ambassadors who have a variety of different roles in STEM industries, are from different backgrounds and most importantly are of both genders. These activity days provide opportunities for pupils to understand STEM concepts whilst having fun! The best way to promote STEM is by using real life STEM role models from the industry; the pupils can speak to our STEM Ambassadors and hear about different job roles, and realise that they don’t have to look or behave a certain way.

We are looking for ambassadors with good presentation skills and the confidence to manage a primary school classroom of 30 students. Prior experience is not essential but would be beneficial. An enhanced DBS certificate is required to attend STEM activity days (support through the DBS application process can be provided).

What it provides:

  • Travel, accommodation and food expenses included
  • All relevant training

What’s in it for you?

  • A rewarding role – an opportunity to give back to the next generation
  • Networking opportunities within our team of ambassadors
  • Mentoring from the Techwuman team (Employability, careers advice & CV development)
  • A daily rate with travel, accommodation and food expenses covered

The additional benefits of becoming a STEM Ambassador include CV enhancement, improving confidence and communication skills, and the personal satisfaction of positively impacting on future generations.

WHAT AMBASSADORS SAY

"Promoting STEM within schools is so important, it creates the opportunity to influence the lives of children by educating them on STEM and breaking the stereotypes surrounding the industries involved. It is very rewarding working with the children and teaching them that STEM is a very exciting field within which to work, and encouraging them to pursue STEM subjects. The children really enjoy all the activities, and it is a great opportunity for the ambassadors to support STEM industries and leave children inspired from a young age."

"Being a STEM Ambassador with Techwuman is enriching and empowering. With Techwuman you’re joining the warm team to present the importance of STEM subjects and job roles to children who’s mind are sponges and smiles are mirrors; they absorb our knowledge and emit positivity throughout the day. The sessions are not only beneficial to the students but allow us ambassadors to connect with other like-minded individuals and broaden our network to a wide range of different sectors. Techwuman is like a family of brilliance and I am privileged to be able to say I promote their core values."
