The Engage Learning Platform:
Groundbreaking
Engage is the first learning hub to specifically target the engineering and manufacturing sectors, offering a range of courses from easy first digital engineering steps to more sophisticated technologies and innovation.
Intelligent
Engage is easy to navigate, offering an intuitive chatbot-style interface which guides learners at all levels to tailored content & courses specific to their areas of interest to create a bespoke learning experience.
Timely
In unprecedented times it’s crucial we take every opportunity to develop & upskill in emerging technologies. Through Engage learners will get the knowledge they need to adapt and respond to the pace of global innovation.
Why Engage?
Industrial digitalisation (sometimes referred to as the Fourth Industrial Revolution or Industry 4.0) represents the most significant disruption to advanced manufacturing and engineering in half a century.
The promise of fast, flexible, high quality and efficient production will increasingly be realised and exploited as the true power of industrial digitalisation is adopted, embedded and fully integrated into manufacturing systems and in support of agile decision making.
Engage helps engineers and makers gain the skills they need to keep pace with emerging trends and technologies.

Frequently Asked Questions
What Will I Learn on Engage?
Some of the UK’s most cutting-edge companies, centres of innovation and organisations have made content available for the first time for the platform’s launch, including Formula 1, the Royal Academy of Engineering, the High Value Manufacturing Catapult, the Institute of Engineering and Technology, Excellence, Achievement and Learning, Make UK, FutureLearn and Accenture. In the coming weeks, more content will be added from Formula 1 and the Royal Academy of Engineering.
Why is Engage Important Now?
Engage is a rapid response to support engineers during and beyond COVID-19. Development of the platform has been accelerated to support workers at a time when many may have found themselves furloughed. Helping engineers, technicians and wider manufacturing employees to learn and explore digital techniques and processes will also help support a much needed post-COVID 19 productivity boost. Returning employees will be up-skilled and more agile as a workforce, and better able to adapt and respond to the pace of global technological innovation to help their companies recover at speed.
What Courses are Right for Me?
Engage has 600+ pieces of content covering key emerging technologies including data analytics, the Industrial Internet of Things (IoT), cybersecurity resilience, industrial and autonomous robotics and additive manufacturing. Those logging on will also become familiar with virtual augmented reality as well as artificial intelligence and its applications alongside machine learning.
