National Apprenticeship Week 2021 #BuildtheFuture

This week, the UK is celebrating National Apprenticeship Week 2021. This year’s theme is ‘Build the Future’.

During the week-long celebration, there will be a focus on how employers train, retrain and achieve with apprenticeships. Apprenticeships offer valuable on-the-job training coupled with classroom studying, providing an opportunity to gain real-world experience. Such schemes are an ideal career development opportunity for school leavers who want to gain an insight into the working world, whilst gaining valuable skills to allow them to access such careers.

Robinson Brothers has a rich history of supporting young individuals in the development of their careers within chemical manufacturing. We focus on providing opportunities within IT, sales, quality, engineering and chemistry disciplines.

As a current Instrument Apprentice, Hasan Choudhury’s main responsibilities on site are to ensure that instruments are functioning correctly within their required calibration and becoming actively involved with the installation of new instruments. Furthermore, Hasan is responsible for inspections of instruments and fault finding if there are any issues.

Hasan said:

‘Being an apprentice has helped me develop and grow as an individual through the exposure of being in a working environment. Working whilst being in education allows you to implement first-hand theoretical knowledge that you are taught at college in a real-world setting.

My advice to anyone considering an apprenticeship is to find one that suits you and go for it. The knowledge, experience and financial benefit are huge advantages of doing an apprenticeship.’

Robinson Brothers also continues to support undergraduate placement programs. This is enabled through working partnerships with: University of Birmingham, University of Wolverhampton and Aston University. Robinson Brothers has supported such schemes to train young professionals within their engineering and science divisions to develop the next generation of workers.
