Poole: Aish helps bridge gap between school and industry

Aish Technologies, the Poole-based defence systems design and manufacturer, has become involved in a UK-wide STEM project to encourage school pupils to carry out engineering-based projects. The scheme, called Go4SET, has been established by the Education Development Trust (EDT) which delivers over 30,000 STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) experiences each year, for young people age 11-21 across the UK.

Chris Hoadley, business development manager for Aish. has become involved in the scheme as an assessor in conjunction with the

RNLI, BAE Systems and Bournemouth University. He said: “Together with our very successful apprenticeship scheme, the Go4SET

project will introduce Aish to a younger audience and help to stimulate an interest in Engineering as a career.”
