"I applied for an apprenticeship at NHSPS because I've wanted to do my Gas qualifications for years, but was never offered the opportunity with other employers. As soon as I joined NHSPS and they offered this opportunity, I wanted to get started straight away.

Throughout the programme you get loads of support, from other engineers up to senior management, and you get direct support from the Learning & Development team and your training centres.

I would recommend an apprenticeship at NHSPS because of the support you get and the time you're given to do your actual training, making it easy to balance your workload with your training."
