Technician apprentices have an identical first and second year to the craft apprentices.
The third year they may start to work in a Design or detailing office dealing with
the production area so you get a close “hands on feel” for the product
and processes. You will be trained to use detailing software such as AutoCad. Other
Technician Apprentices have moved into Maintenance. A really challenging service
to the business, where every problem is a new one and you will need to learn about
mechanical, electrical and electronic engineering.
During the fourth year you will be working in the team or department you plan to
specialize in. You will have been adding value to the business since year two.
