JTL, a training provider for electrical and plumbing apprenticeships across England and Wales, will host an Open Day at its Birmingham Training Centre on Saturday 16 August, from 10am to 2pm.
The event is part of the organisation’s new nationwide campaign, Powering Apprenticeships. Fuelling Your Career, aimed at encouraging school leavers to consider skilled trades as a career path.
The Open Day will offer prospective apprentices and local employers the chance to tour the centre’s workshops and classrooms, meet JTL’s staff and tutors, and take part in interactive sessions.
A dedicated Employer-Apprentice Match Area will allow businesses to connect directly with potential recruits, while a mini trade fair will provide further networking opportunities.
Attendees will also hear from JTL Chief Executive Chris Claydon and Birmingham Delivery Team Manager Neil Hammersley, with guidance available on apprenticeship funding, onboarding, and training support.
“We’re looking forward to welcoming the community to our Birmingham centre,” comments Neil.
“Whether you’re new to apprenticeships or already working with us, this is a fantastic opportunity to connect and explore what’s possible.”
JTL’s new campaign will run throughout July and August, targeting school leavers, parents, carers, and careers advisers.
It aims to raise awareness of apprenticeships as a viable and rewarding alternative to university or college.
