In October we hosted a unique online careers event to get Essex’s young people thinking about how their creativity and curiosity can lead to a dream career in science, technology and engineering.
The event gave 14-25 year olds an opportunity to have honest and inspiring conversations about the current and future world of work – with industry professionals in Science, Technology, Engineering, the Arts and Mathematics (STEAM).
Designed by always possible with the support of Careers & Enterprise Company, TechEast and People on Work and kindly sponsored by CITY FIBRE.
