LU Signals Engineering Apprenticeship

As a signals apprentice you will be following a structured training programme that, if successfully completed, can springboard you into a lifelong career as part of our signals department. Our combined programme of level 3 apprenticeship training and advanced signalling courses are designed to prepare you for a career as a Technical Officer in the signalling department.

Training:

Rail Engineering Technician Level 3. 

You will gain your basic engineering skills at college at the beginning of your scheme before being placed with highly skilled signals teams across every underground line to learn your trade. You will be required to work nights on work experience placements to gain the essential exposure needed to underpin your growing knowledge, skills, and behaviours as a signalling engineer.

Training Outcome:

During your apprenticeship, your professional and personal development will be monitored and observed. Full and comprehensive support will be available to ensure you are developing to the correct and required standards and, if you successfully complete the apprenticeship, your career within our signals department will have only just begun.
