Its not too late to change your mind…
Jordan, Plastering “When I left school I thought I wanted to go into Child Care, but as soon as I started the course I knew it wasn’t for me. I wasn’t really sure what to do next but after chatting with my neighbour, who employed apprentices through Skills Group, I thought I would give plastering a go. I’m now really enjoying my course and love the freedom and flexibility that Skills Group give you. I have a great trainer who has built up my confidence and have already secured a work placement. I’m so happy I changed my mind.”
Tyler, Painting and Decorating “I started my Painting and Decorating course after studying Music Production at College. I didn’t like the environment I was in and knew it wasn’t really for me. I made the decision to change and I’m so pleased I did, I love Skills Group – my trainer treats me with respect and I feel comfortable and relaxed to learn what I need to start my future career.”
Jordan, Carpentry “I’ve always been interested in Carpentry after seeing my uncle creating lots of amazing products. I started at a different training provider but found there was no progression opportunity. I then found out about Skills Group, who are now helping me to find an apprenticeship and long awaited job opportunity that I really want! The atmosphere is great and my trainer is helping me develop my skills so I am confident when I go out into the workplace.”
Liam, Painting and Decorating “I’ve never found something I really enjoyed until I came here! I had been to various colleges doing construction trades, but never felt they were right for me. Then I was recommended Skills Group and I am finally happy! My trainer is fantastic and I love the environment, I am enjoying learning the skills and techniques needed to start my career in Painting and Decorating.”
Dylan, Bricklaying “I have studied a range of trades from Mechanics to Engineering at college but I was adamant that I wouldn’t settle until I found what I really wanted to do – you work for a long time, so I’m taking this time to really make sure I am happy with what I’ll do for the rest of my life! I am now doing a Bricklaying qualification which I think will give me the perfect skills to start my career!”
