February 16 – 22, 2020 is Engineers Week, during which we celebrate the theme Engineers: Pioneers of Progress. Like all pioneers, engineers use their knowledge, creativity, and sense of adventure to cross frontiers. This Engineers Week, we take a moment to recognize and celebrate the work of all of our engineers here at TekTone.

Products in the Tek-CARE platform require hard work from the engineering department from the onset of the design process, and that work continues through the life of the product. At TekTone, all of our product design, testing, manufacturing and technical support occurs at our headquarters in Franklin, North Carolina, led by TekTone’s engineering department.We are incredibly grateful for the hard work that our engineers put into our products everyday.

Within our engineering and production departments, we also work to provide learning opportunities for local students interested in engineering careers, including internships and partnerships with local education institutions. As our society becomes more dependent on technology, it is vital to encourage and engage students in engineering, especially at a local level.

DiscoverE, the organization behind Engineers Week, has free resources you can use to inspire future pioneers, such as hands-on engineering activities and lesson plans, information about engineering education, and pathways to a technical careers. Visit DiscoverE.org and get the help you need to focus on the “E” in STEM.
