STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering & Mathematics)
Ambassadors play a vital role visiting schools and colleges
to help inspire young people to consider floorlaying careers.
Ambassadors help break stereotypes and use activities
such as short presentations, workshops and attend careers
events with pre-developed demos or exercises based
around floorlaying, that students can get involved in.
