A quick visit to the Yellow Pages or a drive around one of the many industrial estates will demonstrate the ‘Engineering’ industry in Hereford is thriving. As a welder fabricator your role may involve sheet-metal work, plate-metal work, structural steel work, pipe-work or anything in between.

Course programme
Apprenticeships are a well respected and recommended route into this sector. Read on to find out more...
Apprenticeships are designed with the help of employers in the industry, so they offer a structured programme that takes you through the skills you need to do a job well. There are targets and checks to make sure that your employer is supporting you and you are making progress.
As an employee you will be in employment for 5 days a week (at least 30 hours per week) and your employer will release you for one day to attend college - which is also PAID. As such, most of the training takes place on-the-job; the rest takes place at HLC (as day release). All the things you study at college during this time will be useful in your job and help you to succeed in your future career.
Assessment will take place through practical training at college and work and via theory through a portfolio of evidence. Work-based assessments are also carried out.
