Josh left school and decided an Apprenticeship was the right direction for him. After dropping in to see us we discussed a number of options available and Josh decided Vehicle Parts would be right for him.

Martec introduced him to a local business that supported him throughout the Apprenticeship programme and is now in full time employment with the same company; managing their stock and database, liaising with customers externally and internally and co-ordinating deliveries. He operates sole responsibility for the parts counter and has the confidence to deal with the public face to face on a daily basis.

Josh Says:
‘When it came to thinking about leaving school I knew I didn’t want to go onto standard further education in a college. I really wanted to earn some money but had very little experience and knew it would be difficult to find a job where I could also learn a trade. I heard about Martec from school and decided to go and find out more. What really appealed to me is that I would earn money whilst learning a skill and earn a qualification. My placement was local to home and also to Martec which was a real advantage.
