Borders Parliamentarians John Lamont MP and Rachael Hamilton MSP support a new Engineering Training Centre in Tweedbank

Russell Coleman, Borders Technical Training Association, Group Training Director commented 

"After a long wait and a lot of hard work, it was great to see a fantastic attendance by associate companies, MAs, SDS, SoSE. Schools/DYW and other key stakeholders at the BTTA Ltd open even on Friday 13th March. I would also like to thank John Lamont MP and Rachael Hamilton MSP for giving up some of their valuable time to support our new Engineering Training Centre that will hopefully serve the Scottish Borders and compliment what colleges can offer in providing a wide variety of skills learning. 

This has been a three and a half year project full of passion since I took over the reins at BTTA (formerly BETA ) in October 2022 and part of the long term vision of our Management Committee.  My thanks to all involved in getting us to this point and hopefully beyond."
