You don’t have to be a graduate

So after 15 years cranking out my blog and podcast for Energy News, I’ve decided to use the platform to host some new voices and unconventional perspectives to shed some light on how we’re going to manage the energy transition. Sophie Burgess “the Accidental Energy Professional” is joining me on the journey.  

For the next few weeks, we’re talking to Shelley Pearce who’s the Director of Engineering NZ’s rather wonderful Wonder Project, their free programme for schools, designed to get young Kiwis excited about science, technology, engineering and maths (STEM).

This week Sophie and Shelley look beyond primary/intermediate at the pathways to get all sorts of talented people into the sector, not just graduates.

If you’re interested in being an Ambassador for the next round of the Wonder Project which starts in Term 2 2024, you can sign up here or follow the links above.
