My name is Stuart Bateman and I started this site because after I finished University I thought I knew enough to start progressing into Engineering and now after 20 years I can see that I wasn’t prepared, that I had to learn so many different things and at times they weren’t directly related to Engineering.

So, this site is aimed at young engineers and engineering students (but anyone is welcome to explore as the topics and blogs will relate to you as well), where I hope to share, answer questions and pass on what tips / tricks & knowledge I’ve gained to help you get a better start in industry.

I go through my career path, why I decided to become Chartered and then apart from my Blog that tackle daily engineering topics, I share resources / sites / books / videos / methods and techniques that have helped developed me and what I rely on for my job.

If you have any questions relating to Engineering or anything I talk about then I invite you to get in touch, else please explore!

Also, I do offer services to help others with their development and implementation of Lean Manufacturing, but if you’re here to find out more on Lean then head to this post which starts talking and teaching you what you need to know. My advice is to start with the low hanging fruit and work your way up in terms of size of projects and improvements, good luck and let me know how things go!
