Axiom in the community

Axiom is a keen advocate of business and education working together to create the workforce for tomorrow.  We work at grass roots level collaborating with local schools and have developed the curriculum to equip young people ready for industry.

As the world changes and businesses face even more pressure to become leaner and fitter, employers and educators alike must rise to the challenges and change the way in which they operate. It is vital that this is communicated to our young people as they get ready to work in the commercial world.

Our projects have many benefits such as:-

  • To enhance the activities of the school for the benefit of pupils by demonstrating to them the applicability of skills learned in school for career development
  • To provide development opportunities for both school and company staff
  • Develop the role of the schools and the company in our local community
  • To develop an early interest in and enthusiasm for science

Customer Quotes

"Axiom's electronic workshops are a fantastic way of introducing youngsters to science within industry and also provide a fun learning experience that is linked to the national curriculum. It's really encouraging to see a company engaging with schools in the local area in such a positive way.
I'm sure the young people will come away from the workshops with a renewed interest in science and electronics." Careers Wales
