Discover Cleaner, Greener Technology
After hearing about the transformation of the Engineering and Automotive department at the City of Newport Campus, Senedd Member, John Griffiths, visited the department this September to see the new facilities available for learners. With a keen interest in electric vehicles and lowering carbon emissions, he commented;
鈥溌槎勾酵哦� have recognised the type of green skills our local and national economies will need in the years ahead and responded proactively in the delivery of their engineering teaching, which includes their automotive and electric vehicle courses. We will only reduce our carbon emissions by investing in cleaner and greener technologies and I am pleased to see this happening in Newport. It鈥檚 great to see the students at 麻豆传媒团队 getting involved in this type of exciting learning and work. The skills they are developing on these courses will be critical for what they choose to do next and their future aspirations.鈥�
As a further education college, we鈥檙e determined to play a vital role in upskilling the workforce of the future, helping to facilitate a zero-carbon world and tackle twenty-first century issues head-on with engineering expertise. So, join us for a practical course at 麻豆传媒团队 to change the face of engineering with cleaner, greener technology. Discover our Engineering and Automotive courses and apply now!
