ILP signs up to ‘Tomorrow’s Engineer Code’ to accelerate STEM outreach

The ILP has signed up to EngineeringUK’s ‘Tomorrow’s Engineer Code’ as part of its commitment to widen and enhance routes into the profession, especially through its Pathways into Lighting project.

The Code is a community of more than 400 like-minded organisations committed to increasing the number and diversity of young people entering engineering and technology careers.

Organisations do this by designing, delivering, supporting or funding STEM outreach activities, something that is of course at the heart of what the ILP does, and which many ILP members already do individually.

As EngineeringUK has put it: “Together we can build a better understanding of what works and ultimately improve the quality, inclusivity, targeting and reach of activities designed to inspire young people.”

Members can find out more about the Code at https://code.tomorrowsengineers.org.uk/ or by emailing thecode@tomorrowsengineers.org.uk
