It's great to see so many bodyshops, accident repair centres and suppliers tweeting about their apprentices as part of #NAW2020. The future of our amazing industry is looking bright!
Continuing #NationalApprenticeshipWeek, we recognise Paint Apprentice Jay Baseley, who finished in the top 10 of Farecla’s Bonnet Painting Competition 2019. Outside of work, he was previously part of Northampton Saints Rugby Club for 4 years and now plays for Olney RFC

2nd meeting yesterday was at @AWCrashRepair Beeston with Ian Pearson - Compliancy and Training Manager. We spoke about their multi skilled #apprentices and plans to recruit more later in the year. Ian said they measure ROI and some apprentices are exceeding expectations already!
Met this fantastic group of #apprentices from @AWCrashRepair who were on block release @EmtecAuto yesterday. They all spoke about what an incredible company they work at: " friendly", "supportive", "like a family" #naw2020
Charlie and Harvey - 2nd year apprentices @AWCrashRepair both enjoying multi skilled programme. Pleased to "earn whilst they learn" as could have gone to uni but wanted less theory and more practical. #apprentices#naw2020
Jim Swann and Derek Sellen from Apollo Motor Group welcomed us at their Basingstoke site this week. Their Academy now has 30 single skill apprentices, being trained by @RemitTraining. What a fantastic program, with Jim supporting and mentoring all of their apprentices...
Great meeting Jerry Kitchker - automotive curriculum lead @BTC_Coll and seeing their centre where they deliver paint, panel, MET, light and heavy vehicle. Plans to deliver #multiskilled in the pipeline. 500+ learners with nearly 50% #apprentices
Martin Smith leads the @ArtisAccident HR function. They're a relatively young company but already have 8 multi-skilled apprentices being trained by @EmtecAuto With a fantastic “family culture”, they work hard to ensure their apprentices are having a great learning experience...
Next up for #NationalApprenticeshipWeek is Panel Apprentice Rian Howarth, who enjoys restoring classic cars in his free time. At 18, he’s completed Level 2 early and joined an advanced year group for Level 3, which he’ll likely complete in only 2 ½ years
With the brilliant team at @FixAutoMidDevon yesterday. They recruited Aaron and Brodie as multi-skilled apprentices on their AutoRaise Industry Showcase Event back in December 2018 and are having a great experience with @EmtecAuto Great business, great culture and a great team...
Day 2 of National Apprenticeship Week sees the AutoRaise team out and about in force. Today we're at a careers fair at #nottinghamcollege, also meeting employers and apprentices in Nottingham and visiting @EmtecAuto who were the first provider to deliver #multiskilled#NAW2020
Last week saw the opening of our newly refurbished Hoddesdon site, where we are proud to be working in partnership with LV= General Insurance on a sole supply basis 💚 @LVviews
We started National apprenticeship week by meeting Jack Jessep at Fix Auto Plymouth. Thank you Gillian Cain and Daryll Cain for accommodating us and it was great to hear Jack talk about his single skill Panel Apprenticeship....
Wow – what a fantastic kick-off to #WSUKLIVE 2019! We’ve seen inspirational speakers, got hands-on with expert skills & met some top employers too. Why not take @edjames_ & @jonbentley90's advice & come along on Saturday 23 to see it for yourself? https://t.co/B18QGNNugo
We’ve had a fab day at @worldskillsuk and we even got a back stage pass! 🤩
