takes part in the third of a series of four Jobs for the Girls Academy sessions taking place at the end of April, focusing on ‘Future Technology’, and Scolmore Group will be sharing their knowledge on the subject of Wireless RF Technology to the gathered audience of aspiring female electricians.

Set up in 2011 the Jobs for the Girls Academy aims to encourage more women into the electrical sector by providing valuable industry-based learning that will enhance their career opportunities. 

Scolmore Group has previously been involved in other efforts to support newcomers in the industry, for instance through its involvement with the NICEIC and the UK National Apprentice of the Year. 

Marie Parry, Scolmore marketing manager, has to say:  “With an estimated 1 in every 1,000 electrical contractors being female, there is clearly a huge job to do to encourage and facilitate women into this male dominated industry.  We are already working with NICEIC to provide one day training programmes on home automation to electrical contractors, and we’re delighted to have the opportunity to get in front of this dedicated female audience to share our knowledge and experience, and to enhance their learning.”

Jobs for the Girls Academy Session 3: Future Technology takes place on the 30th April.
