Minister for Postal Affairs and Employment, Lord Young, has expressed his approval for Tube Lines’ apprenticeship scheme.
In a recent visit to Tube Lines’ training centre he said: “Now more than ever, it's essential that businesses continue to employ and train apprentices. Apprenticeships are key to building British skills and it's vital that we continue to invest in people and their skills, especially in industries key to our future economic success.
“Employers like Tube Lines are doing exactly that. They're showing just how much value an apprentice can add to your business and are an example from which other businesses should follow.”
The training centre is good news for young people looking to get jobs in rail, as over 80 per cent of those who have completed the course at the centre have been given full time work by Tube Lines.
