Find out what some recent students had to say about the course!
Will Frapple
Level 3 Electrotechnical Apprenticeship
"I chose to do an electrical apprenticeship at college straight after school as I never really enjoyed sitting in a classroom all day. I always enjoyed the more practical aspects of school.
The smaller classes which made it easier for me to study which made the learning experience more enjoyable.
The highlights of the course for me were passing exams throughout the time at college some of which took hard work and lots of determination to complete. It was always nice to get one more step toward qualifying"
Lola Roberts
Level 2 Plumbing
" Since a very young age I have been into many hands on jobs in the construction, however plumbing was the pathway I chose as I enjoy everything to do with plumbing, especially how day to day jobs are varied.
The best part so far has been representing the college in the HIP Apprentice of the year competition! It was a very pleasing experience and one that I would love to do again!
For anyone thinking of studying Plumbing I would say at the start everything seems complicating and difficult, mistakes happen and you get frustrated. However if you stick at it, I promise you it will get easier and you won’t regret it"
