SES continues its apprentice recruitment programme

10 December, 2006

Skills for the future —building-services provider SES has recruited 28 new apprentices this year.

Building-services provider SES is continuing its apprenticeship training programme with the recruitment of 28 new apprentices this Autumn. They will learn their trade in a 4-year Advanced Modern Apprenticeship scheme incorporating experience on site and college-based learning. This year’s intake, aged from 16 to 27, will be trained in the traditional disciplines of heating, ventilation, plumbing and electrical installation at Leeds College of Building. Each apprentice will be allocated to one of SES’s eight business units and could be working anywhere from the University of Teesside to the Royal Alexandra’s Children’s Hospital on the Sussex coast. SES has recruited 60 apprentices in the last two years, and the scheme is producing a continuing flow of young engineers with site-ready skills based on an educational foundation.
