Welcome to The Code explores…
A new and exciting way to access Code content. We explore key topics valued by the Code community more deeply – delving into each one through a series of live and on-demand events over several weeks.
The Code explores… is designed to be:
- In-depth: focusing on specific topics that you told us are important, providing comprehensive insights and discussions
- Flexible: engage in a way that suits your schedule. Can’t attend a Live? No problem, we'll share the link so you can watch at your leisure
- Community driven: giving you the chance to continue conversations across the Code community – sharing ideas and getting new perspectives in your Code LinkedIn group
The Code explores... designing inclusive programmes
A short, focused series aimed at:
- strengthening your approach to inclusion
- building confidence in inclusive outreach design
- supporting shared learning across the STEM outreach community
We'll bring together expert insight, practical guidance, and applied tools to help make sure programmes are accessible, equitable, and responsive to the diverse needs, backgrounds, and experiences of young people.
EngineeringUK will also share learnings from its own journey, highlighting key reflections, challenges, and progress in creating more inclusive opportunities for young audiences.
This series is aligned with The Code’s drive inclusion pledge.
