9th February 2021
It’s National Apprenticeship Week and we’d like to introduce our two young apprentices: David Edmunds and James Atyeo-Pearson.
David, pictured at a safe social distance wearing red gloves, joined Rollalong on 20th January, while James started his apprenticeship with us on 4th January.
They are both local lads doing a two-year Level 2 Site Carpentry apprenticeship, which involves four days a week in our factory in Dorset and one day a week at college.
As well as carpentry they are also learning the modern methods of construction employed in factory manufactured buildings.
Each apprentice is mentored by an experienced factory manager and supported by the wider Rollalong team. They are both following a two-year plan which will give them experience of all aspects of the manufacturing process, with a specific focus on carpentry.
We were delighted to welcome them to the team and we look forward to helping them develop their carpentry careers!
The theme for National Apprenticeship Week 2021 is ‘Build the Future’. The Government is encouraging everyone to consider how apprenticeships can help individuals to develop the skills and knowledge required for a rewarding career, and help employers to build a workforce with future-ready skills.
