Are you the next
Engineer of Tomorrow?
THE prestigious Engineers of Tomorrow
annual competition is now open for the fire and security industry's
brightest young engineers to register their interest. Successful entrants
will then be invited to pit their skills against each other in a live
installation challenge at Europe's largest security exhibition, IFSEC
International this June.
Each year more than 50 apprentice engineers participate in pairs to complete
a 90 minute live challenge on the busy exhibition floor at IFSEC
International, where they are then assessed by a leading panel of judges
from the security inspectorates, NSI and SSAIB, and points are allocated
based on performance in the various disciplines.
Heat winners and their employers will be invited to the prestigious Security
and Fire Excellence Awards where the winner will be announced and awarded a
£1000 cash prize.
Simon Banks, Group Managing Director at CSL DualCom Group, said:- "The
purpose of Engineers Of Tomorrow is to showcase the very best talent the
security industry has to offer. It recognises the value of skills in our
sector and for any Installers who have invested in an apprentice, the
competition is a great opportunity to promote their competency on a World
stage."
Engineers of Tomorrow is part of Apprenticeships for Fire & Security, an
initiative that places apprentices into careers in the security industry and
supports their development. Sponsored by IFSEC, CSL DualCom, NSI, SSAIB and
Skills for Security, the scheme has already helped launch the careers of
more than 3,000 young apprentices.
At the heart of the installation apprentice and young engineer industry, the
competition will provide participants with a global stage to compete against
their peers and represent their company. Prizes will be awarded to the top
three pairs of engineers, with a first prize of £1000 provided by CSL
DualCom, the second prize donated by NSI of a £500 Red Letter Day and
finally a third prize of £300 supported by SSAIB.
This year IFSEC International will run from 21-23 June in 2016 at London's ExCeL and will once again be presented as part of UBM EMEA's Protection
and
Management Series, the UK's largest event dedicated to protecting and
managing property, people and information. The series incorporates major
events including IFSEC International along with FIREX International,
Facilities Show, Safety and Health Expo and Service Management Expo.
