TECHNICIANS who visited an open day at the University of Teesside were told about a degree created with them in mind.
The chemical technology foundation degree, introduced at the university last year, is aimed at process industry workers without academic qualifications.
Students who enrol on the two-year practical course are able to combine their studies with busy work schedules.
At an open day at the university's Innovation Building in Middlesbrough, student Judith Postgate, of ICI Billingham, talked to workers about her experience on the course.
