They can deliver a 60-minute session in schools and colleges to talk about HPC, nuclear energy, net zero, and their own apprenticeship/job role. They will also outline the hugely popular Level 3 EMTA apprenticeship and introduce the specific support available to help students prepare for each stage of the EMTA application process. Finally, they will run a short, practical task linked to the Engineering Maintenance role and take part in a Q&A session.
