The programme covers a range of key areas, including:
Engineering principles and technical mathematics
Interpreting technical drawings and specifications
CNC programming, setting, and operatingManual machining and tooling
Quality control and inspection techniques
Health and safety in the engineering environment
Apprentices will gain experience in both theory and practical application, developing the ability to work independently as a skilled machining technician. The programme also includes the completion of a portfolio of evidence, capturing your progress in knowledge, skills and behaviours, which contributes towards your End Point Assessment (EPA).
On successful completion, you may progress to more advanced roles within the business, with opportunities to specialise or continue your technical development.Training:Engineering Machining Technician – Level 3 Apprenticeship
