We run the GetSkilled programme with National Grid, a scheme designed to support young people not in education, employment or training and equip them with the work-related skills they need to progress into the world of work.
Following the success of our first WMG Academy for Young Engineers in Coventry, we’ve just opened another in Solihull, equipping even more of the region’s students with the technical skills for employment or further education.
We help people who have been out of education for many years back into study, supporting and enabling them to develop new skills and study for a professional qualification.
We’re championing degree apprenticeships - WMG has introduced an Applied Engineering Programme, and we're establishing more in different subject areas.
The Coventry FabLab, supported by Warwick, Coventry University and Coventry City Council, uses advanced manufacturing to give local people the power to create "almost anything", energising them to learn about science.
