Apprentice Statement
I feel I have benefitted form this apprenticeship program massively. It has helped me gain a lot of knowledge, experience and confidence to further my career in the trade and widen up my career opportunities! Since starting this apprenticeship I have completed in the Welsh and World Skills UK in 2023 and 2024 with support from my tutors with a Silver medal result!
Victoria Steele, Apprentice Paint Sprayer.
“The level 2 motor mechanics at NPTC offers an insight to a college learning view and a work-based learning view, which is useful to adapt to a garage environment. The staff are very much here to help and benefit the student skills. I feel like I have improved on from Level 1 to level 2 drastically thanks to the opportunities and guidance”
