The apprentices study is a framework which has been developed by SPARROW ’s technical team.
The second year sees the apprentices returning to the Birmingham Service Centre where they will spend three months in each specialist department, Mechanical, Rewinds, High Voltage Coils and Traction. In each case a basic skill set is covered and the apprentices are assessed on their ability and level of interest in the sector. The end of year assessments will see those apprentices that show sufficient aptitude being encouraged to complete a 3-year BTEC in Electrical & Electronic Engineering as part of their development.
