Hi, I’m quite new to this forum, in fact very new as this is my first post.
Basically I came here for a bit of guidance.
I started an apprenticeship when I was 16 that didn’t last to long due to me and the owner not seeing, eye to eye. That was in 2001. After I was released from there company I started doing a college course a year or so later doing full time then part time.
In 2005, I did C&G 2351 electrical knowledge. Level 3.
I completed all that.
Then once I finished that I took a step in a completely different direction and something that I’m not really proud of, but went to work in retail in the John Lewis partnership.
Now I’m looking at sorting this out once and for all, and getting on the ladder of becoming an electrician.
After a phone call to I hoped my old college lecturer, didn't quite go to plan due to a massive move around in staff and the person I wanted to speak to had now left. I was informed by the head of the facilities that all I needed to do was find a company willing to take me on and convert what I had to an NVQ doing day release College I believe.
Now this is were I got confused, am I looking out for job vacancies advertising apprenticeship? Or ringing around a few places to see what they can offer?
I’m sorry to waffle on a bit and I hope I have come to the right place for a little help.
I’m 22 now if that helps.
Many thanks
Dom
