Hear From Employers

“We were finding it hard to recruit new engineers into our audio sector, particularly in 100V Line PA systems, so taking on an apprentice was the ideal way to bring in a young, enthusiastic new team member to fill that role.”

Ian Bridgewater MInstSCVEManaging Director - TOA Corporation (UK) Ltd

We’ve really enjoyed having our apprentice as part of the team and continue to see the value that apprenticeships bring. This program enhances our capabilities while investing in the future of our industry by nurturing talent and offering valuable hands-on experience.
