    Hi

    It is great that this is happening. Young People and their parents need accurate information about opportunities and vocational pathways. Please link up with Connexions and subject tutors to offer general information about STEM related careers and local job markets.

    There is also a need to develop vocational routes into technological careers

    This report merely serves to display much of what is wrong with STEM careers today; the membership of the Science for Careers Group has not a single individual who is a current corporate sector STEM employee or graduate; academia and Human Resources are the sole parties contributing to this. WHere are the opinions of the actual engineers who work on drilling rigs, in carfactories on refineries and factories; this report does not benefit from the practical knowledge of people who are currently exposed to STEM industries.
