Mechanical Fitter Review

Fitting and maintaining mechanical systems within Faslane.

Learned an array of skills in terms of using tools and equipment, problem solving in engineering and how different systems work.

I enjoy the fact I have learned so much in a short space of time and can see the progression I have made since I started.

The programme is well organised with a clear structure of who to contact when help and advice is required. Also monthly tasks are set which gives a clear path of progression.

All the support I need. Whether it is time to do coursework or a chance to change rolls temporarily to gather different evidence.

I am given a great amount of support that gives me the confidence to carry out new parts of training and learning on my own initiative.

The qualification gives me a theoretical background of how systems should work in an ideal world and a general understanding so that I am not going into tasks in work blind.

There are lots of extra curricular activities that are available to benefit myself and opportunities such as becoming a STEM ambassador.

Yes

You are well compensated for a job and career that teaches and supports through training to becoming a better individual within the area of work.

Apply yourself to college/course work. Also, always ask questions and keep notes.
