Meeting the engineers of tomorrow

Wednesday, May 16, 2012

The Brinsworth Academy of Engineering recently invited Meg Munn MP to visit and find out more about their work. The academy is a work based engineering and manufacturing training provider, which offers apprenticeships, workforce development and professionally recognised qualifications. Meg was also taken on a tour of the training facilities and met with many of the young people taking part.

 

Meg has long campaigned for more female engineers and was especially delighted to meet Dawn Woodcock during her visit. Dawn was recently awarded Kraft Foods Apprentice of the Year for 2012 and Brinsworth has been coordinating the delivery of Dawn’s apprenticeship.

 

Meg said:

 

“I really enjoyed my visit and meeting all of the young men and women taking part in the different training programmes. Their enthusiasm and knowledge was good to see. I hope they’ll go on to work in and benefit our local manufacturing and engineering industries.”
