Training:

Here is how the programme works:

Year 1: The likelihood is that you will spend a substantial amount of time at College studying towards your Foundation and knowledge qualifications on a block release and we will begin integrating you into the Yunex community through work placements.

Year 2: You will probably attend college on a day-release basis at this point. You’ll spend the rest of your time as part of a field service centre team. This will involve installing, maintaining and fault-finding on highway electrical equipment. You will also begin your workplace-based competence qualification.

Year 3: In year three you will continue to develop your technical, occupational, and professional competence and build your business network.

Year 4: In year 4 you will complete the end point assessment requirements and transition into a permanent role within the business.

On successfully passing your EPA, you will achieve the Level 3 Engineering Fitter Apprenticeship.

To assist with your learning, you will also be allocated a mentor. 

Training schedule has yet to be agreed upon, further details will be made available at a later date.
