Alison Parkes, EAL Managing Director, said:
"Huge congratulations are in order for each of the Technician of the Year finalists, and I wish them all the very best of luck in the next stage.
"I'm delighted that EAL is sponsoring this award. It's a natural fit, as we provide so many of the qualifications which are used to train high quality technicians across the engineering sector.
"Every projection shows that we need lots more technicians if we're going to meet the skills needs of the engineering sector, and this award is a really good way of publicising the importance of technicians and celebrating the contribution they make."
