It's #GreenCareersWeek and what better way to celebrate than spotlighting our partnership with Drax Group 💡 Together we've created a work-based learning programme about #CarbonCapture that enables students to develop the hard skills they need to begin building a career in this industry. Carbon capture is a topic that often appears in the news as a potential solution to helping reach climate targets. But the technologies involved and skills needed to turn it into a career are often less well known... 👀 In this shorter experience programme students will be briefed by a Process Engineer at Drax on their task and then receive feedback on their submissions. This project structure enables students to put their knowledge to the test and come away with actionable insight about how to develop professionally 📈 Learn more about the experience below ⬇️ 🔗 https://hubs.la/Q02WY8Lm0 #GreenCareers #GCW2024 #Careers
