MEDRU: THE SKILL FACTORY

 

medru: skills factory is a partnership between Bangor University, Coleg Cambria and The Open University in Wales. Our combined expertise in industry and education means we’re perfectly placed to equip people and businesses with the skills they need both now and for the future. These skills centre around the newest and most exciting advances in Industry 4.0, Digital Manufacturing, and Smart Factories. We’re at the forefront of research and innovation, so we know exactly what businesses need to do now to prepare their workforces to meet future challenges and to capitalise on opportunities.

We also know that training needs to be accessible. It needs to cater for all. It needs to fit around work and life. That’s why ours is, and will always be, wide-ranging and flexible. It’s designed with the full workforce in mind, from new starters to technical specialists with decades of industry experience.

Many of our courses can be delivered in-person or online, there’s plenty of scope for learners and organisations to choose to study how it suits them. The ambition is for Medru to offer Industry 4.0 training across the whole of the north-east of Wales, supporting businesses and people in their aspirations, and creating a pipeline of talent for the future. This will be initially based on the nine pillars of Industry 4.0

  • Autonomous Robots
  • The Internet of Things (IoT)
  • Simulation
  • Augmented Reality
  • Cybersecurity
  • System Integration
  • Cloud Computing
  • Additive Manufacturing (3D Printing)
  • Big Data
