Telford College is working in partnership with Shropshire, Telford and Wrekin Integrated Care System to offer a range of education and training courses to employees across the system. Telford College boasts impressive industry standard facilities including two 4-bedded hospital bays, a maternity ward and a social care space – all fully equipped with mock kitchens and bathrooms to create a safe learning environment. There are a range of interactive manikins, and teaching staff with a breadth of industry experience.
“We were originally contacted by the college; we discussed what we were looking for and what the college could do for us. We made use of the excellent talent pool of apprentice candidates the college has and, after interviewing a strong group, we hired our apprentice. I wish we could have taken them all!
We’re hoping to get more apprentices in next year and grow a really good training partnership with the college.”
I would like to thank Telford College for giving me the opportunity to retrain — it has impacted my life in such a positive way. After losing my second wife, I felt I had nothing to live for. But with support, I stood strong and made a complete career change.
From working as a self-employed plasterer for 36 years, with no steady income, I was able to become a professional driver with the security of a regular wage. It’s something I’d always wanted to have a go at, but never thought I could.
Our time on the course was excellent. The training was highly informative and gave us the confidence to take on new technologies and systems straight away. Since completing the course, we have successfully installed multiple PV systems to a high standard.
Telford College played a significant role in our development within the industry and in helping us build the business we have today.
To begin with, our apprentice demonstrated an excellent ability to pick up a task and get straight to work. She was engaging with staff across our different offices, and self-managing her timetable and tasks in no time
The process of hiring an apprentice with Telford College was simple and easy to manage. After listing a job outline in July, we interviewed potential candidates suggested by the college. Our apprentice was selected and joined the team the following August.
