We are committed to delivering high quality and effective CPLD opportunities to practitioners either through our own courses or through our work with partnering STEM education providers. Working closely with Young Engineers and Science Clubs (YESC, part of the Scottish Council for Development and Industry), we are a centre for the delivery of their training courses serving Ayrshire schools and including others from Dumfries and Galloway. YESC develop curriculum linked STEM resources, challenges and projects. Various courses have been delivered previously including ‘Science on the Menu’, ‘I’m an Engineer’, ‘Lighting up the Curriculum’, ‘Heather’s Hut’, ‘Carbon Capture and Storage’, ‘Tweety Pi’ and many more. In addition, we have worked with the Scottish Schools Educational Research Council (SSERC) to provide a residential teacher training experience ‘An insight into Modern STEM Industry’ and the Institute of Physics.

Duration: Various across the academic year.
