Written by: Ruth Kennedy

We had a very good response to the seminar which the Engineering Institute of Technology ran in Midrand, South Africa, on the 19th June.

During the presentation Steve set the attendees to work - automating a business in small groups! The feedback was excellent. We all thoroughly enjoyed hearing your ideas which were delivered astutely and often with humour.

The theme of the presentation, in a nutshell, was the disruption being caused by the increasingly digital/automated world. The topic may have been confronting to some of us, but I do believe Steve was able to explain how these changes can instead offer exciting opportunities. I hope his suggestions and tips will be useful to you as you move through your careers.


The Engineering Institute of Technology (EIT) is dedicated to ensuring our students receive a world-class education and gain skills they can immediately implement in the workplace upon graduation. Our staff members uphold our ethos of honesty and integrity, and we stand by our word because it is our bond. Our students are also expected to carry this attitude throughout their time at our institute, and into their careers.
