Hi guys
I also start on the 27th June in Dartford, really looking forward to it!
There's quite a bit to read through in the starter pack but its all pretty straight forward, I had a few questions for BG regarding the contract and stuff and they got back to me within 24 hours, were very helpful and put my mind at ease

have you had any info on the first week etc, whats the plan sort of thing?

 

[thebends86]

not yet, probably let us know in due time

 

[Dunn]

I received an email today with all the info for when we start
who is going leeds again??

seems as though we do the BG award on the first week in skipton

Good luck to you all. i must say you cant knock the apprenticeship, best in the industry on all accounts.
When your out working for them in the big wide world, thats for you to make your minds up on them, but cant knock that year up in leeds!!

Neil Shackelton is the chap to say hello too, say i said hi, i think hes the head of the academy now, which is a good thing because hes a great bloke. he was my class tutor whilst i was there, in class S1.

Theres alot to get through in a year so pay attention and youll be fine!!

I wonder if any one can help. I have had my interview and being color blind didn't help. So I have been asked to come to there training academy coming Monday and do a Trade Test.

Does any one has any idea what a Trade Test involves.
