Delivering the project alongside the University of Huddersfield, Textile Centre of Excellence, West Yorkshire Manufacturing Services and Calderdale and Kirklees Manufacturing Alliance, the College will create a place where businesses can explore how digital technology can improve their productivity and increase innovation.
The Hub, housed at the College’s newly-established Engineering Centre on the Armytage Road Industrial Estate, is kitted out with high-tech equipment to showcase augmented reality, advanced manufacturing and robotics.
Additionally, the new site will have capacity for 70 apprenticeships to be delivered as part of the project, and a range of new short training programmes designed to help employers upskill their current workforce will be offered to those already pursuing a career in manufacturing.
The site will also host Engineering and Manufacturing study programmes, where Further Education and adult students will be able to learn in a professional, industry environment.\n\n[/cs_content_seo][/cs_column][cs_column fade=”false” fade_animation=”in” fade_animation_offset=”45px” fade_duration=”750″ _bp_base=”0_2″ type=”1/2″ style=”padding: 0px 0px 20px;”][cs_element_image _id=”11″ ][/cs_column][/cs_row][/cs_section][cs_section parallax=”false” separator_top_type=”none” separator_top_height=”50px” separator_top_inset=”0px” separator_top_angle_point=”50″ separator_bottom_type=”none” separator_bottom_height=”50px” separator_bottom_inset=”0px” separator_bottom_angle_point=”50″ _bp_base=”0_2″ style=”margin: 0px;padding: 0px;”][cs_row inner_container=”true” marginless_columns=”false” _bp_base=”0_2″ style=”margin: 0px auto;padding: 0px;”][cs_column fade=”false” fade_animation=”in” fade_animation_offset=”45px” fade_duration=”750″ _bp_base=”0_2″ type=”1/1″ style=”padding: 0px;”][cs_element_text _id=”15″ ][cs_content_seo]To find out more about the College’s Engineering and Manufacturing courses please visit: www.calderdale.ac.uk/engineering-manufacturing/\n\n[/cs_content_seo][/cs_column][/cs_row][/cs_section][/cs_content]
