Are you considering a career in STEM? Excited to explore a week of hands-on engineering workshops, STEM activities, and problem-solving projects? Curious to learn more about what day to day life in a STEM company is like?

Here is what one of our previous work experience students had to say about their week at CC:

“The CC Work Experience Scheme was truly life-changing for me.

This scheme offers invaluable opportunities by merging creativity with technical expertise, while also providing access to industry professionals for insightful conversations and mentorship. Regardless of your level of knowledge about STEM, the people at CC offer a supportive atmosphere that fosters a fun and engaging learning environment, making the experience both enjoyable and rewarding!”
