Design Engineer Construct Partnership with a Secondary School

LoadingAdd to my saved searches

As part of the community benefits offer for this project, the contractor have recently adopted a local academy and are supporting the school to complete the Class of Your Own Design Engineer Construct (DEC!) Programme

Their Digital Technician hosted a webinar session with pupils to discuss his journey into the industry and the benefits of digital technology in construction. The session profiled the importance of Building Information Modelling (BIM) and showed the students the relevance their schoolwork has to the real-world construction challenges.

The class had lots of questions and showed a real interest on how they could use their skills to become future employees.
