Take the first step towards building your engineering career while gaining hands-on experience and getting paid as you work towards your qualifications.

At the start of your apprenticeship, you’ll spend the first 20 weeks at TDR Training School in Longbenton. You’ll then join the team at Rotary Power, South Shields, where you’ll spend four days per week with the design team while attending college one day per week.

Specialising in mechanical engineering, you’ll build a portfolio of evidence throughout your apprenticeship to work towards a Level 3 Diploma in Machining
