ENGINEERING THE
FUTURE
HETA provides specialist training for young
people who are looking to join the world of
engineering through an apprenticeship
programme.
A HETA apprenticeship is like no other. It’s real
work from day one - real experience, real wages,
and first-class training from engineers who are
experts in their fields.
Offering hands-on training and links to over 350
companies within the region, an apprenticeship
with HETA is the best route into a career in
engineering.
Engineering doesn’t always mean heavy lifting,
oily overalls or dirty workshops – although those
are still vital parts of many jobs. Many engineering
roles are based in offices, studios or laboratories.
Today’s fast-moving high-tech world demands a
wide variety of engineering skills focused on
computers and electronics, and sectors like
renewable energy involve creating sleek, pristine
components in clean, bright manufacturing
facilities.

told what to do, but during my
apprenticeship I have been able to focus
on my career and the specific skills I need
to progress.
I started my training at HETA as a trainee,

it can be very competitive. By working
