TTS Launches Dedicated Auto Electrics Apprenticeship

TTS has launched a brand-new Auto Electrics Apprenticeship in response to industry demand.

With the increasing complexity of electrical and electronic systems in modern vehicles, particularly with the rise in EVs, employers have been seeking a more dedicated training programme for young people being employed across vehicle workshops in Northern Ireland.

Previously the only apprenticeship training option was a Light Vehicle Maintenance & Repair Apprenticeship programme, which, although covered electrics as part of the course, was not entirely specific to the needs of auto electrical businesses.

The new TTS programme is open to any light or heavy vehicle workshop that has a need for auto electrical training.  The apprenticeship is available to any person between the ages of 16 and 24 (as stipulated by DfE rules under the ApprenticeshipsNI scheme).

Employers can avail of TTS’s matching service, which helps businesses find and assess candidates for suitability, and in fact, already has job-ready apprentice candidates waiting for employment.
