2021

There is no better place to see how the industry is progressing through its apprentices and technicians than at the IRTE Skills Challenge. As the sector is going through significant change, the competition will continue to adapt and give those technicians an environment to showcase their skills and demonstrate just what it takes to keep these vehicles on the road. Our sponsors, supporters and partners have stayed with us despite there being no competition last year, and we have continued to expand and grow as interest from industry remains strong. I would like to express our gratitude to them and our commitment to provide a platform to raise the profile of the sector in the years ahead.

Bruce McGill
Chief Executive Officer, Society of Operations Engineers
