Detopan and Associates (D&A) Consulting is committed to addressing the modern challenges faced by the engineering industry, particularly in preparing the next generation of engineers to be independent, resilient, and competent. D&A's strategy involves a unique training and development model that begins while students are still in university, treating this investment as a way to build a strong professional network.

This approach can be analogized to a temporary nurturing pond for baby fish. D&A provides a controlled, supportive environment within the university setting, where aspiring engineers can develop their skills and professional identity. This structured development is designed to prepare them for the vast and unpredictable "ocean" of the professional world.

By nurturing these "baby fish" in a protected, educational environment before they are released, D&A ensures they are well-equipped to thrive independently and competently in the demanding engineering industry.
