Associates
The DVLA Code Challenge would not be possible without the support of our associate organisations.
Each year, associates from across the public, private and third sectors work alongside DVLA to inspire the next generation of digital talent across Wales. Through their expertise, ideas and enthusiasm, associates help create meaningful learning experiences that show young people how technology can be used to solve real-world problems.
What do associates do?
Associates can get involved in a range of activities throughout the Code Challenge programme, including:
- Setting a challenge theme for learners to explore.
- Supporting launch events and engaging with participating schools.
- Promoting the programme through their networks and channels.
- Attending the Code Challenge final and celebrating learners' achievements.
- Providing prizes, experiences or opportunities for participating schools.
- Delivering activities, demonstrations or STEM experiences on the day.
- Sharing insights into careers and opportunities within their sector.
