INSPIRING ENGINEERS OF THE FUTURE
Corporate members have the opportunity to play their part in inspiring future generations of engineers through the Engineering Skills Programme at Aerospace Bristol. The Biffa Award Conservation Workshop (open to the public in 2020) will inspire young people and enable them to gain valuable handson work experience. Formal learning opportunities will allow Early-Career and Apprenticeship engineers to work on Bristol aircraft from the museum’s collection, or even develop model interactives for learning, alongside our experienced staff and volunteers. If your company can help us deliver a firstclass Engineering Skills Programme or would like to explore the possible projects that your organisation’s Apprentices can take advantage of, we would love to hear from you. We would be pleased to discuss bespoke opportunities or particular areas your company may wish to support. Please get in touch.
