A visit to the Altrad Sparrows training centre provided Bridge of Don Academy pupils with skills development opportunities and sector awareness.
Senior pupils from Bridge of Don Academy visited Altrad Sparrow's OPITO-certified training centre. As part of their tour, they were allowed to use the crane simulator and also received a talk on the different career paths within Altrad Sparrows.
