A new guide published by the Department for Education and the Institute for Apprenticeships and Technical Education has highlighted the fact that electrical apprenticeships can offer some of the best career prospects for young people.
ECA Director of Workforce and Public Affairs Andrew Eldred said, “This endorsement from the Department for Education and IfATE confirms what we in industry already knew. An electrical apprenticeship isn’t just a popular choice. It also offers some of the best opportunities for an exciting and rewarding career – not least in delivering the UK’s Net Zero future.”
The guide forms part of a Government campaign to highlight apprenticeships to young people.
ECA, along with industry partners TESP and NET, encourages anyone considering an electrotechnical career to visit the electrical careers website and learn about the training opportunities available for young people.
As well as providing a route to a lucrative career and skills for life, the electrotechnical sector is at the heart of the Net Zero transition. ECA Members and the wider industry are overcoming obstacles and seizing opportunities to make low carbon living a reality.
