Huge thanks to everyone who made @TechxFest such an amazing success yesterday! We welcomed 600 schoolchildren who spent the day learning about technical careers from a range of fantastic employers. Happy students, happy teachers, happy exhibitors & a happy (slightly tired!) team!

Did you know that #technician focussed #career and #outreach activities have been recommended as a key activity within a national report published by @MI_TechTalent?

The @ResEngland funded programme is committed to improving the visibility of technical careers to young people ⤵️

[MI TechTALENT @MI_TechTalent]

Today, we delivered @TechxFest - the UK's 1st careers event to inspire the next generation of technicians 🙌

Why? Technical roles, careers & pathways are not fully understood by schools or young people #Technician #outreach can change this.

Excellent day at @TechxFest where we welcomed so many school and college students to see the world of technicians! The @TechsatAston family were there to represent @AstonUniversity!

We brought along our simulation equipment and got the students to compete against each other on the CPR challenge.

Thoroughly enjoyed the event, it was well organised with the students really engaged at the event! It was great to meet other technicians and show why a career as a technician is a rewarding career! #techniciansmakeithappen
