Thank you to DesignPro Automation for all the time given to our students during their visit

DesignPro Automation

We recently had the pleasure of hosting 6th-year students from Hazelwood College Dromcollogher as part of their Leaving Certificate program, where they are exploring potential career paths.

This focused group came well-prepared, having done extensive research on our industry, and brought a detailed list of insightful questions about our business strategy.

It’s always great to see such an engaged group, and we were impressed by their interest in the future of automation and engineering.

Thank you, Hazelwood College, for the visit – we wish you all the best in your studies!
