Expanding our vision:

The Industry & Educator Exchange (IndEX) is a strategic brand extension of the London Design & Engineering UTC (LDE UTC).

This is an institution widely recognised for its distinctive ethos, shaped by innovative technical education and strong partnerships with industry.

LDE UTC is consistently oversubscribed, with hundreds of learners turned away annually due to high demand.

This reflects the success of a model in which academic rigour is embedded within real-world relevance and where employer engagement is central to curriculum delivery.

To respond to demand and extend the reach of its educational impact, LDE UTC has established a brand extension, the Technical Education Skills Trust (TEST).

To drive this mission forward, TEST is developing a suite of pioneering initiatives.

You can find out about of these initiatives by visiting: testrust.uk
