Partnerships

We co-hosted a Digital Futures workshop at The Bicester School with ARK Data Centres. Together, we ran sessions for Year 12 on CV writing and interview techniques.

We recently had the opportunity to volunteer as mentors at UTC Reading’s Community Project Day. Partnering with the Amuka Foundation, the event challenged students to develop real-world solutions to improve infrastructure and education at Loruko Primary School, a rural school in Kenya facing significant challenges. 

Recently, we had the privilege of participating in a Digital Futures Programme Challenge Day at UTC Oxfordshire, where Year 10 and Year 12 students took on the ambitious task of designing a fully operational data centre.  

Students at UTC Heathrow were immersed in an exciting and educational day of challenges focused on sustainability in data centres, hosted by KAO Data and supported by VIRTUS, Vertiv, JLL, Cyrus One, LMG, AWS, ARK, and others.

We’re thrilled that we’ve been awarded Platinum accredited membership as part of The 5% Club’s esteemed 2024-25 Employer Audit Scheme.

This week, AVK introduced The AVK Academy, a data centre engineer training academy based in Kent. Read this article to find out more about the key features of the academy, why it is so needed, and how to apply if you’re interested.

On Monday 22nd July, we had the pleasure of attending a workshop at UTC Reading hosted by Yondr Group. The workshop was the fourth run by the hyperscale data centre developer and was a fantastic opportunity for us to watch the Digital Futures Programme in action.
