#EPCDEIWebinar
What is the aim of the #RAEng's Diversity Impact Programme (DIP)?
To inspire change in university engineering departments so all students succeed and engineers from diverse backgrounds continue to enhance the profession.
#EPCDEIWebinar
Our DEI Community leads introduce our next speaker: Karen Grayson @raeng.org.uk, who will be discussing #RAEng’s Diversity Impact Programme (DIP).
#EPCDEIWebinar
More to come! Keep your eyes peeled for a practical How-To Guide / Case study to help integrate the activities with ease, and offering real-world examples of how the toolkit has been used by academics and students. #InclusiveEmployabilityToolkit #EPCDEIWebinar
The University Career Services Library serves as a valuable starting point for exploring career development support, including workshops, employment opportunities, internships, mentoring schemes, and other services available through your university. #EPCDEIWebinar
The EPC’s Inclusive Employability Toolkit is our resource designed to help engineering educators integrate EDI principles and practices in engineering, computing, design, and technology – across education, employer engagement, career preparation, and progression into the workplace. #EPCDEIWebinar

Coming soon: Keep your eyes peeled for the Neuro-Inclusion Maturity Framework which will be launched very soon! #EPCDEIWebinar
Last week, we held a successful workshop in Scotland, and the community has committed to supporting the sector through shared practice and resources, which will accompany the framework once finalised. This is truly a community-led effort - designed with neuro-inclusion at its core. #EPCDEIWebinar
With over 100 contributors collaborating, and support from Stella in facilitating this work on behalf of the network, we’ve created communities of practice to ensure ongoing engagement. #EPCDEIWebinar
The EPC’s track record in thought leadership and our unique position to empower and amplify the knowledge, skills, and experiences of the Engineering Academics Network inspires us in our campaign - Neurodiversity: All in for Engineering. #EPCDEIWebinar
Addressing inequality and exclusion from engineering education of those who are wired to think differently calls for more than just a research project; instead, we seek momentum for a movement. #EPCDEIWebinar
