“There are many fantastic skills that can be learned from designing and building fighting robots,” said Makerspace manager (and founder of CEB Robot Club) Josh Easy.
 
With the second annual Robot Club tournament just around the corner, we spoke to Josh about some of the transferable skills and knowledge that members of the club have gained through the process of building their challengers.

“Our members learn about Computer Aided Design (CAD), 3D printing, laser cutting, CNC machining, electrical circuit design and more,” Josh said. The participants take these skills beyond the bots.
 
“Whether its CAD, which is used across a huge number of engineering fields, or time management and collaboration, the hard and soft skills our members learn at Robot Club are applicable across disciplines.”  

From developing real-world technical expertise to cultivating problem-solving abilities under pressure, CEB Robot Club is a unique opportunity to develop engineering skills that carry benefits far beyond the custom-built arena that will host the tournament later this month.
 
Josh summed it up best: “It’s not just about building robots, it’s about building confidence, creativity and a community of future innovators.”

 

The 2025 CEB Robot Club tournament takes place on Tuesday 17 June from 5:00pm onwards.
