Business/Personal improvement
‘I’ve been able to transfer many previously aquired skills onto my new training. The apprenticeship will enable me to become independent in my job role at DPE Automotive. I am looking forward to the day when I’m fully competent in my area of training’.
Sam Artingstall, employee with DPE Automotive
‘During mentoring sessions we have a chance to discuss any past work, successes on the programme but also areas for improvement. This really helps the apprentices with knowing what’s expected of them in order to succeed on the programme and in their future careers within this industry’.
Colin Bennett, Health and Safety and Environmental Co-ordinator at DPE Automotive.
