Graduation day for Renault apprentices
South Yorkshire had delivered the first group of technicians to graduate from Groupe Renault’s Advanced Apprenticeship Programme.
The programme was set up in 2015.
A total of 18 youngsters graduated at Groupe Renault’s state-of the-art training facility in Doncaster, South Yorkshire.
Emma Holmes, academy manager, Groupe Renault UK, said, ‘What these young people have achieved is terrific. Automotive apprenticeships are very different today from what they used to be and being a dealership service technician is an extremely skilled and specialised job. By joining the scheme and showing a willingness to learn and work hard, our graduating apprentices are setting themselves – and our dealers – up for a very bright future indeed.’
The apprentices were awarded Groupe Renault’s Advanced Apprenticeship certificate, which is recognised by the Institute of the Motor Industry (IMI), and are now qualified technicians, with an option to further their training to become Senior Technicians and ultimately Master Technicians.
