Mechanical Fitter Review

Responsible for stripping mechanical components and refitting them. Spend first year in college learning the basics.

I have learned loads of new skills, way to many to mention, and there making me a component engineer.

I am enjoying my apprenticeship beyond words. I look forward to getting up early and getting in the workshop everyday.

I think the apprenticeship is structured very well. Spend the first year in college doing SVQ2 and NC then second/third year doing SVQ3 and HNC, while picking up experience on site.

Individual support is there if needed, and other than that there is apprentice reviews every couple months and a monthly meeting. Although there is room to make this better.

Plenty of support is provided from Fife College.

Fife College is teaching us the basic in mechanical maintenance engineering. This provides us with enough skills to get on site and develop our skills through experience.

Not that I am aware off but there could we be.

Yes

Brilliant company to work for, provides you with skills for life and a job.

Do a bit of research into Babcock, what they do and there principles. Look into what trade your applying for and what is needed to do that job. Be yourself every step of the application process.
