David Thomas - Engineering Apprentice

“I did A-levels at college, but felt I would benefit more by gaining some work experience. I am studying for a BTEC Level 3 in Construction and the Built Environment, as well as a HNC in Civil Engineering. I have really benefited from being able to study, gain valuable work experience and earn all at the same time. I feel this puts me ahead of some graduates, who have a degree, but no work experience.”


Curtis Waugh - Engineering Undergraduate

“My time here has gifted me with education and ample opportunities; all of which I’d be lucky to find outside of a prestigious apprenticeship.”

Matt Baker - Engineering Undergraduate

“I completed my apprenticeship in 2016 and gained Distinctions in my BTEC and HNC in Civil Engineering. I am due to start my Engineering degree (part time) and have really enjoyed working with the Engineering team, learning while I earn and being able to visit sites around the country where we are building the structures that I have helped to design.”


Leona Budworth - Craft Apprentice

“All of my family work in engineering. Doing a welding and fabrication apprenticeship means I can do something practical.”

Seb Elkes - Fabrication & Welding Apprentice

“I didn’t do very well in my GCSE’s at school, so I am really proud that I have completed my craft apprenticeship gaining my Level 3 Diploma in Fabrication and Welding, as well as a Level 3 Diploma in Engineering. Although I did start studying Engineering at college when I left school, I have made the right choice with my apprenticeship, as I was still able to attend college, while also learning a lot of practical skills on the job and was earning at the same time. Doing an apprenticeship was the best decision I ever made, especially when I was awarded the ‘Apprentice of the Year’ award by my college.”
