If you want to work in the manufacturing industry, doing an apprenticeship is a great way to kick start your future career.
Training as a lean manufacturing operative – specialising in inspection and quality, logistics and materials, production and assembly or production processing – will enable you to develop essential skills in identifying problems, improving processes and increasing production which will lead to great employment opportunities in a range of organisations in the future.
During your apprenticeship you’ll combine working for an employer with studying towards occupational standards set by employers, learning-on-the-job alongside experienced colleagues in the workplace rather than sitting in a classroom all day – and, because you’ll be doing a real job for a real employer, you’ll get paid too!
In the workplace you’ll learn on-the-job by working alongside existing experienced staff, and when you’re in college you’ll be taught by qualified tutors who have worked in the industry themselves.
You’ll train at our specialist Polymer Training Innovation Centre, in Telford and be trained by a team of experienced business improvement specialists who have worked in the manufacturing industry themselves.
What’s more, you’ll be supported throughout your training by college staff who will work closely with employers your employer to ensure that the skills that you are learning are what is required by their business and that you will achieve your full potential and career aspirations.
And, did you know that apprenticeships aren’t just for new staff? if you’re already employed in the industry and want to improve your skills and boost your promotion prospects you can benefit from apprenticeship training too – just ask your employer to email employerenquiries@wolvcoll.ac.uk and a member of the team will contact them to discuss your training further.
