Thomas Rhodes - Apprenticeship

Joined WCCTV: 2016
Apprenticeship: Production & Manufacturing
Current Role: Production Operative

Why did you apply for an apprenticeship?

I decided to do an apprenticeship with WCCTV as I tried other options like college, manufacturing jobs and unfortunately these career paths were not for me as they offered no possibilities for career advancement.

Why did you choose WCCTV?

WCCTV offered the opportunity to gain experience in Electrical Engineering in the real world and to learn and improve skills that will become useful to progress my career further.

How did WCCTV support your development?

I have developed new skills that are relevant to my career as I started at WCCTV with no experience or skills in the area I wanted to pursue.

WCCTV have been extremely supportive in developing my skills within the Engineering Hub facilitating a further experience with essential training and I’ve developed at a much quicker rate than I may have elsewhere.

I am about to begin working towards an HNC in Electrical Engineering through the Company as they have been very helpful in progressing my development and broadening my skill set so I can eventually move up the career ladder internally.

The apprenticeship at WCCTV has not only helped with qualifications but with experience in a working environment.

Would you recommend WCCTV to other students?

I would advise those wanting to do an apprenticeship to go for it and apply - even if they don’t think they have the skill set or knowledge because WCCTV will support you all the way.
