Uniting to inspire a diverse engineering and technology workforce
The Code is a community of more than 300 like-minded organisations committed to increasing the number and diversity of young people entering engineering and technology careers. They do this by designing, delivering, supporting or funding STEM outreach activities.

Join The Code
The Code is for organisations, large or small, across all sectors, committed to inspiring the next generation through STEM outreach to support young people entering the engineering and technology workforce.
Whether you're starting to run engagement activities, or if you have lots of experience, the Code's 300+ members can help through sharing knowledge and best practice.
We ask Code Signatories to commit to 4 pledges. These pledges have been created to help shape your engagement strategy and there are lots of resources to help you meet the pledges.
Our unique platform, Code Connect, supports the community to collaborate.
If you're not delivering outreach, you can still join The Code as a Supporter.
