The drinks dispense technician apprenticeship is a UK-first!
Developed in partnership with brewers and drinks manufacturers across the country, the structured programme teaches skills to enable technicians to install, maintain and repair a range of complex drinks dispensing equipment in pubs, clubs, bars, hotels, theatres, leisure centres and stadiums.
The programme covers a wide range of tasks, including plumbing, electrics, refrigeration, gas pressure systems and pipework, as well as fault finding, problem solving, customer service, training, product quality, time and workload management, health and safety, and industry codes of practice.
During the training, apprentices will combine working for the employer with studying towards achieving a set of occupational standards set by employers, attending the college on a block release basis every month.
Training is delivered by a leader in drinks dispense installation and takes place at local brewery giant Marston’s Plc’s Talent Academy in Wolverhampton, which is equipped with a range of industry-standard equipment.
What’s more, throughout their training, the apprentice will be supported by college staff who will work closely with you to ensure that the skills they are learning are what is required by your business and that they will achieve their full potential and career aspirations, as well as meet your business needs.
The college has a dedicated recruitment team to support employers in appointing an apprentice – including advertising vacancies, screening applicants and shortlisting candidates for interview; and with a talent pool of enthusiastic young people waiting for a business apprenticeship you can be sure you’ll be employing the right person for the job!
And, did you know that apprenticeships aren’t just for new staff? If you want to upskill and develop existing members of your team they can benefit from apprenticeship training too – email employerenquiries@wolvcoll.ac.uk and a member of the team will contact you to discuss your requirements further.
