From Theory to Action

Tuesday, February 1st, we were more than happy to welcome in our facilities in Nea Kifisia a group of students in the Department of Surveying and Geoinformatics Engineering at the University of West Attica visited.
Τhe Topographic Engineering students were informed about the use and operation of some of the leading brand Caterpillar machines. The students had also the opportunity to see in situ some of the hi-tech possibilities offered by the CAT equipment and how it can make a difference in the construction domain, facilitating also the daily life of the operators. The ELTRAK Head of Education Mr. Kyriakos Protoulis has been responsible to give the whole picture to the young students, including a presentation of the operating process of the workshop. The interest of the students was lively by actively participating with questions mainly in relation to the life cycle of the machines, their maintenance, the hydraulic systems, and also the engines.
During the tour, the students did not fail to be informed about the HR Procedures of our Group by the Director of Human Resources, such as Mr. Nikos Boutas, giving important information on key areas such as the recruitment process, staff evaluation, and training opportunities offered to the employees. Finally, there was a big interest in the policy, which the company has structured for the internal development processes of the staff.
We are very happy that this visit has been the beginning of wider cooperation between ELTRAK and the University of West Attica. Soon, there will be more educational visits on behalf of various departments of the University, such as that of the Department of Civil Engineering.
