"You know you've had a good training session when the hour feels like it was 15 minutes" Whoop whoop that was a comment from a member of the engineering team about a session I delivered this morning 'Seamlessly building connections and belonging with your students' DM me for more information on how I can help you to build connections with your students. #teenagers #teachertraining #rapportbuilding

A few years ago I was introduced to James Williamson at NAAME. A couple of weeks later and I attended an event with NAAME regarding the skills shortage in our region. Most of (if not all) of the companies attending all agreed on one thing - we have a MASSIVE skills shortage at the moment within engineering (and STEM). The best part of this was that some of the attendees realised that no one was going to fix this unless we did something about it. This was when I met the great minds of Daniel Leggett, Rachel Bunn and Tom Beales - who all agreed on this problem and that we need to fix it. There are other amazing companies involved such as SMS Group | Ship Repair | Marine Interiors | Marine Engineering | SC SQEP. Fast forward to 2023 and the first cohort of the Skills Bootcamp was completed with the 8 students all completing a 11 week program that consisted of learning new disciplines such as welding, mechanics and electrical etc. But most importantly of all - learning new life skills. Today was the final day of the second cohort of the Skills Bootcamp and this time 11 (now I think about it it maybe 12 😄) students had completed the same 11 week program - again learning those new life skills. What amazes me the most was one of the students driving 116 miles every Monday-Friday for those 11 weeks to make sure he attends the bootcamp and makes the most out of it, now that’s a prime example of commitment. I may only have a small part in this great adventure with the amazing team behind this but it’s a part I am so pleased to have. Bring on the next cohort. #skillshortage #engineering #greatyarmouth #STEM

One of my goal in life as a young man when I was younger was to inspire people to become successful in life. I remember 2017, when I started a life coaching school for secondary student talking to them on how they can become successful in their academics. it was during my Industrial Training days! I couldn't continue because life was very hard for me then because I don't even have where to stay. I was sleeping around with my friends but I kept going. 2018 I have to go back to school for my HND to continue my study as a mechanical engineering student at Rufus Giwa Polytechnic Owo Ondo State where I graduated ad the best student in my option. however, in school I was able to impact my friends with my goal of raising successful people. today, I still have some of them working with me even as we are Serving (NYSC) I am happy that I did not allow whatever I am going through to stop me from achieving my goals. though, I might not have been to where I am going to, but I am not where I use to be. tomorrow, I will be talking to my other corp members on a program I organized as the ICT and LEGAL AID CDS group president. it's actually a big opportunity for me to be able to impart my colleagues. I will be speaking on the topic: UPTHRUST: think money, think TECH. #inspire #publicspeaking #coach #success #techcommunity #techtraining #motivation #nysc
