Default new apprenticeship scheme launched today :)

Hiya gang.

Just been working over the last few days rolling out a new apprenticeship scheme in the UK for school leavers (and anyone really)

called "ATTITUDE"

Based on an Electronics/electrical enginnering NVQ level3 with sepcialist modules for building controls.

anyone out there got a son/daughter that may be interested in earning while they learn and geting a career in building controls - check out

Attitude Vocational Courses for more data

open days at Aston villa's ground, Tottenhams ground and Chelsea's ground at the end of this month... apply online for your place

Mikey.


PS; if i'm breaking any forum rules by putting this thread up let me know

I hope it's better than the bull**** "work-based learning" courses on offer at the moment?

You know? The ones where the kid can't continue on the course after two years unless he/she gets taken on by a plumber/painter/decorator/electrician/ etc etc.

And can't continue if ***** gets made redundant..........like THAT'S not gonna happen in Bliar's Britain........

And finishing the course to get ANY sort of meaningful qualification depends ENTIRELY on staying in work?

Legally, when one takes an apprentice on, you can't make them redundant.

When accepted onto this scheme they'll be EMPLOYED from day one as an apprentice. If they can finish the course and be hitting early to mid £20k's in salary. Not bad for a young'un.

It's a great initiative, more companies need to do things like this.

Sounds like an interesting course. What with all the new energy saving schemes and new fangled technology in place now it would be very varied, lots of experience in many areas.

I take it by building controls you mean heating/chilling,access, BMS systems etc?
