- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on The Engineering and Technology Board's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.”

Significant events
- “A highlight of our work in 2024/25 is the new partnership we built to drive a collective mission to achieve a step-change in the number of young women into education pathways to engineering and technology at age 18 that yielded six new strands of work.”
- “Our new EUK Education brand and website were launched in October 2024 followed by marketing communications throughout the year to drive awareness and engagement.”
- “We built a new partnership with BCS, the Chartered Institute for IT, the Royal Academy of Engineering, Women's Engineering Society (WES) and Women into Science and Engineering (WISE) to drive a collective mission to achieve a step-change in the number of young women on education pathways to engineering and technology at age 18.”

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. The comparison is only shown when the latest and prior accounts cover broadly equal-length periods — short or long stubs (typical around incorporation or a year-end change) are suppressed rather than misrepresented. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
