Make sure your STEM Ambassador profile reflects your impact!

Did you know you can now download a summary of your impact as a STEM Ambassador directly from your dashboard with the "Download Impact" button?

This is a great way to demonstrate the number of activities you've completed, how many participants you've reached, and see an overview of what your past activities have involved.

To make this summary as useful as possible please remember to regularly update your account to show all of the volunteering you've done.

Recording all of your volunteering allows your Hub to suggest other relevant opportunities to you, based on your previous experiences. It also ensures you can get recognition for your efforts, through STEM Certificates and other awards!

When you get involved with activities that aren't being advertised on the website, it's really important you record these separately.
