Course details
Mechanical Fitting & Assembly Apprentice Unit
HETA’s Mechanical Fitting & Assembly Apprentice Unit is designed to help levy-paying employers strengthen practical mechanical capability within their existing workforce.
The programme is ideal for employees who are not currently apprentices and who would benefit from a stronger understanding of mechanical systems, equipment and fault finding. It is particularly suited to operators moving into more technical responsibilities and engineers looking to broaden their skills.
How it works
The programme is delivered over 10 days of practical training, followed by a formal assessment.
Training is focused on developing hands-on, job-relevant mechanical skills that can be applied within engineering, manufacturing and maintenance environments.
Successful delegates will receive a Skills England certificate in Mechanical Fitting and Assembly.
Funding
The Mechanical Apprentice Unit costs £1,650 per person and can be funded through an employer’s apprenticeship levy.
This gives levy-paying employers the opportunity to use existing levy funds to develop the skills of their current workforce without taking the cost from their wider training budget.
Delegates must be existing employees who are not currently apprentices.
