The STEPS Young Engineers Award competition encourages 3rd and 4th class pupils and their teachers to explore the world of engineering by developing an engineering project that would help improve their local community.
Schools are encouraged to invite local engineers, or to sign up for a STEPS Volunteer Engineer, to visit their class for a showcase of the projects. The engineers will also give the class an insight into the important role of engineering in the community.
Applications are open. Find out more about the competition here. Register by September 23rd to opt into a STEPS volunteer engineer visit.
To volunteer to visit a STEPS Young Engineers Award class you must complete a STEPS online training session. All training sessions take place on the week of 12 September. Find out more about the competition here.
