It’s @AFBE_UK Live! today and the @ECITB_Skills team is here to engage with the theme of Embedding Inclusion in Engineering (human-centred solutions)

And what a fabulous set of winners at @ETAwards23. Well done to all the winners and finalists. @ECITB_Skills #EngDiversity

Well done to all the finalists. And the winner of the Inclusion Programme of the Year at @ETAwards23 is UCL & BADU “Bridging the Gap”. ⁦@ECITB_Skills⁩ CEO Andrew Hockey presents the award

And proceedings will be underway shortly at @ETAwards23

Paraphrasing very true words from @EqualEngineers founder @MarkMcBW - with the interface between skills, workforce, net zero, infrastructure it’s really important to play the long game. Building inclusion and culture change takes time

So @ECITB_Skills are delighted to be supporting the #ETAwards23 today. We are sponsoring Inclusion Programme of the Year - good luck to all the award finalists #EngDiversity

This train will be running in the South East line for a year. How great to honour Verena Holmes, an trailblazing female engineer from Kent. A nice symmetry too - @CanterburyCCUni opened their Verena Holmes building last year, home for great for cross-STEM learning #INWED23

It’s INWED2023 and I have been lucky enough to attend several very different events this week to mark the celebration. But it was so moving to see @dawnbonfield thanked today by @YeWanDae at @sciencemuseum for being the determined individual who started INWED 10 yrs ago

The @ECITB_Skills Project Conference kicks off with ECITB Chair Lynda Armstrong with a very interesting line-up of speakers. It has been a while since this event was last held in person and the opportunity to network F2F always adds an extra dimension.

A full day of interesting content - well done @thewisecampaign for 2023 conference. Food for thought for @ECITB_Skills on returnerships and a behavioural approach for inclusive recruitment. Good chance to catch up with @RAEngNews @ReturntoSTEM @networkrail #engdiversity

Proceedings just starting at the @thewisecampaign 2023 conference, with Kay Hussain opening the programme. Strong focus on returners and retention today #engdiversity #wise2023 @ECITB_Skills

Something different this evening. At @UCLEngEdu for @MarkMcBW inaugural lecture as @RAEngNews Visiting Professor on Inclusive Engineering Leadership #engdiversity

It was lovely to be back at @RAEngNews this evening supporting the @ThisIsEng celebration. Hearing about the reach achieved over the 5 years is inspiring but even better to hear the commitment to long term inspiration. Good to share @ECITB_Skills work with Green Jobs Taskforce

Just completed valuable 3 days with @INPD_. on Strategic Approaches to ED&I - valuable background to developing ECITB's action plan.

A huge thank you to the host of tonight’s award ceremony @shinisomara 🙏 and our host sponsor @Altrad 🙏 #ECIAwards22

We are very pleased to share the result of our levy consultation. A strong endorsement underpinning the next vital phase of our support of the engineering construction industry.
