Empowering the Next Generation: Free Women in STEM Resources for Schools
This International Women’s Day, The Access Group is providing free resources to help schools inspire and encourage more girls to consider careers in STEM - particularly software engineering.
Despite the incredible contributions of women in science and technology, they remain underrepresented in these fields. By showcasing female trailblazers and offering engaging, hands-on activities, we aim to challenge stereotypes and spark curiosity among all students.
Get Involved, share and use these resources: Help us break barriers and build a future where everyone has a place in STEM.
