Following LE-TEC’s launch of the We Are Land-based Engineering campaign in December 2022 which was created to work as a hub of information for students, parents and teachers to find out more information on land-based engineering and the varied and rewarding careers it has to offer. There is also detailed information on educational routes into the industry, therefore the competition now fits perfectly as part of this campaign.
