As National Inclusion Week comes to a close, one thing is clear: inclusion can’t wait.

We’ve been inspired by the conversations, the reflection, and the progress made, but this is only the start. On 30 September, the WISE Conference will bring together industry leaders, members and changemakers to explore how we turn intent into action. ✨

Now is the time to accelerate inclusion in STEM. Secure your place now: https://spkl.io/6181Ar1hD

Bias impacts every workplace, and how we respond to it shapes the culture and decisions within. Today, our colleague Athina is running an internal workshop on understanding bias, the same training we offer to organisations across the UK.

By practising what we preach, we’re helping build a more inclusive workplace from the inside out and providing tools to others to do the same. 🙌

WISE Members have access to this training. Interested in learning more? Drop us a message!

It’s National Inclusion Week, and we’re proud to be part of the movement for more inclusive workplaces for women in STEM. ✨

At WISE, we believe that inclusion means more than a seat at the table. It’s about:

-representation that drives innovation
-equity that supports every woman’s journey
-a culture where everyone can thrive

This week, we’re spotlighting how inclusion really works and what YOU can do to make a difference.

Follow along, join the conversation, and let’s build a more inclusive future together.

Don’t miss out on our webinar: Insightful inclusion: making EDI data standard practice, which takes place this week!

The 90-minute session, exclusively for WISE members, is full of useful tools and frameworks to enable you to make use of data in your EDI initiatives.

You’ll learn best practice for collecting EDI data, with Daisy March, EDI Manager at the IET. Then Katherine Watson, WISE Knowledge and Impact Manager, will introduce you to the WISE Gender Equity Framework, and how you can use it as a tool to both gather data and use your findings. All geared towards attracting, retaining and progressing women in your organisation.

We look forward to welcoming you to this interactive session on 10 September. Confirm your place at https://spkl.io/6187APFrl

Calling all women apprentices in STEM! 📢

In collaboration with UWE Bristol, we are creating a My Skills My Life role model booklet to celebrate women who’ve completed or are currently undertaking STEM apprenticeships. 🌟

This open resource will help inspire young people, challenge stereotypes, and showcase the many pathways into STEM careers.

The booklet will launch at our one-day event: STEM Apprenticeships: Best Practice for Inclusive Recruitment and Retention, on 9 October 2025 at UWE Bristol

If you’re a current or former apprentice, we’d love to feature your story!

Contact Shamineh Mavalvala by Friday 12 September at [email protected] to receive a submission form.

Breaking barriers in STEM: Professor Dame Athene Donald to Speak at WISE Conference 2025

Athene will be sharing her powerful thoughts on gender parity in STEM, challenging stereotypes and calling for much-needed change in how we support women in science.

Don’t miss this opportunity to hear from one of the UK’s leading voices in STEM.

It’s GCSE results day 2025! Congratulations to everyone who has received their exam results today, we hope it makes you excited for bright futures ahead.

A decrease in the overall population of 16-year-olds has meant a decrease in the number of young people participating in STEM GCSE subjects in 2025. Girls continue to make up 47.8% of STEM GCSE entries, giving us near gender parity, a major achievement for our sector and the diversity and success of its future workforce!

Whether through A Levels, college, or vocational routes, we need to intervene, inspire, and support young people to carry on studying STEM. It is hands-on, impactful, and vital to society’s future.
