This Ayrshire Girl Can ThisAyrshireGirlCan is our award-winning campaign to encourage more females to take up STEM and construction subjects. First Minister Nicola Sturgeon MSP launched our #ThisAyrshireGirlCan film on International Women’s Day 2016. Since then, hundreds of girls and young women have taken part in STEM activities organised by the College. This successful campaign was recognised by the Scottish Diversity Awards in 2016 as Best Diversity Marketing and Social Issues Campaign. Our #WhatIActuallyDo films walk viewers through a typical day in the life of female engineering apprentices including Hyspec Engineering’s Megan Forrest, GSK apprentice Chloe Greig, Woodward’s Kirsty Harvey and Anna Manson from Spirit AeroSystems.
