Apprentices take to the floor for apprenticeship week

Four British Engines apprentices have been put to the test by local students, keen to get a taste of what life is like as an engineering apprentice.

The visit to British Engines group company, CMP Products, was organised as part of National Apprenticeship Week. It saw the 15-16 year old students from Bede Academy take part in a round of quick fire questions with current apprentices from all years of the scheme.

Ross Broadbent，Harrison Cowell，Daryll Ahomet和Elliot Consureham放弃了他们的时间回答Bede Academy学生的问题。

许多学生对学徒享受最多或最不对这个计划的兴趣感兴趣，重要的是，他们得到了多少钱！

The apprentices answered honestly, telling the students that they especially enjoyed the practical hands-on learning and working in a factory environment with state-of-the-art technology. They also told the group of students from Blyth that the only downside is getting out of bed in the mornings!

在Q＆A会议之后，学生们在CRAMlington围绕CMP产品厂进行了一场巡回赛，该巡回赛在克拉姆灵顿设计和制造各种行业的一系列电缆腺体和电缆188博金宝网站下载夹板。188博金宝网站下载188博金宝备用地址

Alan Corner, head of sixth form at Bede Academy said: “It was a great opportunity for students to hear about apprenticeships from people who really know what they are all about. The students loved the opportunity to see round the factory, and particularly benefitted from the Q & A session with the apprentices.”

Denis Healy, business development manager at the IMechE said: “It’s great to see British Engines playing a big part in inspiring young people to take up engineering apprenticeships. This is a great example of a leading North East engineering business opening its doors to school students to show them the potential of an engineering career.

“The apprentice route is an exciting way into the engineering profession where young people can acquire practical engineering skills alongside studying. And, of course, they have all the benefits of working with a world class employer, getting a salary, alongside building their skills and knowledge.

“我们地区领先公司与学校之间的伙伴关系非常重要，并使第10至11名学生能够与学徒交谈，并为自己提供工程职业所提供的机会。”
