Commsworld has been expanding its high-speed full-fibre network throughout Scotland, delivering internet connectivity speeds of up to 10 Gigabits to individuals and businesses in search of the most cutting-edge digital connection available. Central to this growth has been the working partnership between Commsworld and its fellow Scottish-headquartered company Emtelle, a leading global provider of innovative passive infrastructure solutions.
A trailblazing apprentice from North Lanarkshire is encouraging others to consider following in her career path. Iona Aitken, 20, from Cumbernauld, was among the first cohort to join the North Lanarkshire Council and Commsworld apprenticeship programme, which provides young people with opportunities to pursue skilled jobs within the tech sector. Today, on International Women’s Day, she tells her story of how she became an apprentice and how she hopes to encourage other girls to follow in her footsteps and consider STEM careers, and jobs in tech.
When Commsworld was awarded a £150m contract with North Lanarkshire Council to transform digital connectivity across the region, a key element within this contract was the additional benefits it would bring to the community and its citizens with a focus on supporting young people into a career in STEM. Together with SmartSTEMs we're rolling out transformative initiatives, harnessing our young minds and and bringing STEM to life.
