The electrical team are super experienced and will have your back, they’ll show you everything you need to know before you’re expected to complete any tasks on your own

College is part of the deal, so as well as attending every now and then, you’ll also need to collect information about your achievements for your portfolio and complete all the required learning and assessment criteria within the deadlines given by your tutor.
