On March 21, the Grandpuits refinery welcomed students from Vauquelin High School for a series of site visits.
The event was a unique opportunity to give the students an insight into the role, importance and diversity of industry and to showcase industrial career paths, which are often overlooked and underrated.
« We have moved to digital controls, computer science, robotics, 3D printing – there are new things every day. Young people do not realize that this is a great industry.» Andréa, Student at École de Production
« There are many things to change when it comes to mentalities, but it’s the parents you need to convince, not the kids. » Daniel Chambodut, Director of the Gorge de Loup School École de Production
« These jobs are pillars within society, without mechanics there is nothing – no cars, no windmills, no nuclear power plants, and hence no electricity. » Thibault, Business Manager specializing in 3D printing and machining.
