In an industry-leading development, STEM Racing \u2013 the global STEM competition \u2013 has announced the launch of STEM Racing Learn, a new digital learning platform developed in partnership with Aston Martin Aramco Formula One\u2122 Team and Maaden.<\/p>\n
Bringing together the engineering expertise of motorsport and mining with the education program supported by Formula 1\u00ae, the platform is the first of its kind and marks the beginning of an exciting tri-partnership. Together, the three organizations will deliver online learning to thousands of young people around the world.<\/p>\n
The free-to-access platform has been developed to make high-quality STEM education more accessible and help remove the geographic and resource barriers that can prevent students from accessing leading educational opportunities.<\/p>\n
The launch also enables Maaden \u2013 one of the world\u2019s largest mining companies \u2013 to expand its \u2018Unearth Your Greatness\u2019 mission in partnership with Aston Martin Aramco Formula One\u2122 Team. The initiative celebrates the engineering talent and innovation that power both Formula 1\u00ae and the development of the global mining industry.<\/p>\n
Available from 20 October 2026, the initial launch of STEM Racing Learn will feature four modules: What is STEM Racing?, Career Pathways, The Engineering Design Process and Computer-Aided Design, with a further six modules planned for 2027\/28.<\/p>\n
Each module combines video content featuring engineers and industry experts with interactive learning activities and guided tutorials. Learners will gain insight into the realities of STEM careers while developing practical knowledge and transferrable skills that can support their progression both within STEM Racing and into the wider STEM workforce.<\/p>\n
The platform launches at a time when strengthening the global STEM talent pipeline has never been more important. New research from SThree, developed with the Centre for Economics and Business Research (Cebr), estimates that $5.4 trillion in STEM-related economic output could be at risk over the next decade if skills pipelines fail to keep pace with demand.<\/p>\n
STEM Racing Learn has been created to help address that challenge by connecting young people directly with engineers and industry experts from two globally significant sectors. Through accessible digital learning, the platform aims to inspire the next generation of engineers, innovators and problem-solvers and help them take their first steps towards a career in STEM.<\/p>\n
Anabelle Denford, Partnerships Director at STEM Racing, commented:<\/strong><\/p>\n \u201cThe launch of STEM Racing Learn is one of the proudest moments in our 26-year history. The culmination of decades of experience in bringing STEM education to life for young people, we couldn\u2019t have asked for better partners with which to work as we enter the world of digital learning.<\/p>\n \u201cFor students to be able to hear first-hand from engineers inside a Formula 1\u00ae team and industry-leading companies like Maaden is truly invaluable. It opens their eyes to just what a career in STEM can make possible. We hope many of those signing up to the platform leave feeling inspired and excited to get started on their STEM journeys \u2013 whether that\u2019s in an F1\u00ae paddock in Silverstone or on a mining exploration in the Arabian Shield.\u201d<\/p>\n Adrian Newey, Team Principal & Managing Technical Partner at Aston Martin Aramco Formula One\u2122 Team, said of the launch:\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n \u201cI have been a strong supporter of STEM Racing for many years, and anything that makes the content more accessible to young people is a good thing in my view. STEM Racing Learn enables you to learn at your own pace, exploring the subjects that interest you most and discovering how creativity, engineering, and innovation can come together to solve real-world challenges like the ones we face every day in Formula 1\u00ae.\u201d<\/p>\n Bob Wilt, CEO at Maaden, finished:<\/strong><\/p>\n \u201cThe next generation of engineers, innovators and problem-solvers will help drive the transformation of the mining industry. That means we have a responsibility to give young people the skills, knowledge and exposure they need to understand the opportunities ahead of them. STEM Racing Learn brings that to life \u2013 connecting students directly with industry and helping them develop practical skills they can apply to real-world challenges. For Maaden, this is an investment in the talent and ideas that will power the next era of growth and innovation in our industry.\u201d<\/p>\n STEM Racing Learn launched globally October 20th 2026, and is available to access at www.stemracing.com\/learn<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" In an industry-leading development, STEM Racing \u2013 the global STEM competition \u2013 has announced the launch of STEM Racing Learn, a new digital learning platform developed in partnership with Aston Martin Aramco Formula One\u2122 Team and Maaden.
