The gender bias kicks in before age 11 so if we want a more diverse and inclusive rail workforce, we need to start inspiring children today. How can we challenge stereotypes, introduce visible role models and help more children see themselves in STEM before they reach secondary school?

Join Women in Rail for a webinar introducing STEMAZING, led by founder and CEO Alex Knight.

The rail industry faces a long term challenge in attracting a diverse workforce. Early engagement with primary school children can play an important role in changing perceptions, broadening aspirations and helping build a more inclusive talent pipeline for the future.

In this session, Alex Knight will introduce STEMAZING and its work to make STEM more accessible and inclusive. We’ll explore how rail organisations and individuals can get involved, from sponsoring places and supporting school engagement to becoming role models and contributing to mentoring initiatives. Annmarie Luesley, who has been actively involved with STEMAZING, will also share her experiences and reflections on the impact of the initiative.

Who it’s for

This webinar is aimed at rail organisations and individuals who want to support early-years STEM engagement, strengthen their EDI initiatives and help inspire the next generation of rail talent. Whether you’re looking for opportunities for your organisation to get involved or want to make a difference as an individual, this session will offer insight into how you can support STEMAZING’s work.
