JTL, an apprenticeship provider in England and Wales, has begun a recruitment drive for potential learners after recently opening its new training centre on Bridge Street in Telford.

The centre was built to specialise in electrical engineering apprenticeships and now looks to widely offer these apprenticeships in tandem with local employers in the area.

Local businesses will be invited to the centre on Thursday, October 20 to tour the new centre and find out more about the benefits of taking on an apprentice.

Over the duration of their four-year apprenticeship, electrical engineering apprentices will develop the necessary skills to conduct any work that involves the installation, maintenance and repair of electrical systems in industrial, commercial and domestic environments.

The centre is located on the outskirts of Telford and offers public transport links as well as a modern, industry-standard electrical workshop and classroom. Additionally, a flexible day release training pattern has been made available to allow learners to better fit their learning around their work.

Joseph Lo, centre manager at Telford, said: “We are thrilled to have opened our new training centre here in Telford. We’re now looking to welcome new apprentices through the doors and demonstrate to them the true potential of a career in the electrical engineering trade.”

The Telford centre now joins JTL’s network of not-for-profit training centres across England and Wales. From these locations, JTL manages the apprenticeship process by placing learners with a local employer, as well as providing them with a dedicated training officer and a free toolkit.
