OUR IMPACT
EDT (Engineering Development Trust), offer young people active learning experiences in STE(A)M related careers, giving them the opportunity to gain knowledge and exposure that will help them make decisions about their future.
Our aim is to increase interest in STE(A)M careers (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Maths) through a variety of engaging and dynamic programmes for ages 9-21 that replicate experiences found in the workplace. Some examples include industry mentored projects, school activity days, specialised taster courses and industrial placements. All these programs work to develop students’ teamwork, problem solving, communication, digital skills, numeracy and project management - increasing the confidence and employability of young people.
We work with over 3,700 industry partners to build links between educators and industry employers. This enhances students understanding of the industry while also helping organisations reach talent and connect with young people across the UK.
EDT is a dedicated, nationwide charity with over 30 years of experience. Our team work with over 1,300 schools and educational institutions to deliver more than 40,000 STE(A)M experiences each year.
