31: Meet Joel & Ramtin: Bringing Aviation to Life at LDE UTC

This is the official podcast from Technical Education Skills Trust, the operator of London Design & Engineering UTC, LDE UT6th Form, Engineering Skills College, East London Furniture Institute (ELFI), and the Industry & Educators Exchange (IndEX).In this episode of Industry Ready, we meet Joel and Ramtin from our Aviation team, who take us behind the scenes of one of the most exciting and fast-moving industries in the world. They explain why aviation is about so much more than aircraft, covering everything from airport operations, safety, and flight planning to technology, teamwork, and responding to real-world challenges. Learners and parents/carers will also hear how our unique location opposite London City Airport, combined with industry links and practical learning, helps bring the subject to life. Joel and Ramtin also explore the huge variety of opportunities available within aviation, including careers in piloting, engineering, airport operations, cabin crew, business, digital technology, drones, and many roles that may not even exist yet! With industry-experienced teachers, employer engagement, guest speakers, work experience, and plenty of encouragement to ask questions and get involved, this episode is perfect for anyone wondering where studying Aviation could take them. As Joel and Ramtin remind us, come with curiosity, work hard, and make the most of every opportunity — because you never know where aviation might take you… quite literally! ✈️😊For exclusive content and for a sneak peek behind the scenes, please visit: https://www.industryready.co.uk
