Can you get practical with electronics?

We are looking for employers to work with secondary school pupils to bring what they are learning in class to life and to show the industry application of electronics, both in terms of skills and career pathways. This support could be provided in the form of a class career talk, a hands on interactive workshop delivered in class or a site visit. If you are an employer with experience in any of the following areas and would like to share what you know to inspire the next generation, we would love to hear from you.
