Invitation to businesses to visit Bishop Burton

27/07/24

Over the past two years Bishop Burton College has been awarded and invested government Strategic Development Funds in green technologies and renewable energy resources. This cutting edge kit has been set up and trialled on its countryside campus and incorporated into every day activities in order to showcase real world uses of this future tech. Students and staff now have access to a dedicated virtual reality hub based in its central Learning Resource Centre where they can learn through the simulation of realistic working environments whilst also developing skills which employers will be looking for in their future workforces.

The college has held a series of events for local businesses to be able to speak directly to the staff involved in the use of these new technologies and their successful implementation, plus giving insight into lessons learnt along the way. The college’s expert team would love to showcase this kit to more local businesses. So if you are interested in finding out more about:

• The sourcing, implementation and benefits of using solar panels (ground and roof mounted)
• Installing wind turbines and how to capture and store the energy produced
• Using kit like anaerobic digesters, rechargeable power tools, mowers and line markers
• How virtual reality can be used – and experience it for yourself

Please get in touch with Vicki Isaac Victoria.Isaac@bishopburton.ac.uk  and they’ll book you in for a session with their team.
