Virtual Work Experience Information and Ideas

Insights into STEAM careers- Building Better Futures has been created to raise aspirations and awareness, and to breakdown the stereotypes within the construction industry. There are a vast range of professions and careers available in this industry and we want to help young women realise the opportunities, show them the routes into those careers, and hopefully make it clear that this isn’t just an industry for the boys.
