In July 2025, SCAPE organised a work experience event for Bluecoat sixth form students in Nottingham, focusing on procurement and the construction industry. Students explored career paths in quantity surveying and architecture hearing from SCAPE employees and partners.

Students worked on the Bluecoat Bidmasters brief, with the winning team, Connect Local, designing an app that rewards users over 18 for community service with points redeemable at local businesses. The event emphasised creativity, teamwork, and social value.
