A few years ago Aaron Gillespie could never have imagined he'd be a college lecturer but that's exactly where he finds himself today and it's all thanks to an apprenticeship.
He honed his skills under the supervision of the college’s industry expert teaching staff, facilitating him to compete at such a high level in the area of wall and floor tiling. He said: "When you looked at me in secondary school, you wouldn't have thought that the same man would end up being a college lecturer in five or six years' time.
A number of events will take place throughout this week to showcase the types of apprenticeships available in the Further Education Colleges and how those apprenticeships are changing to meet the needs of new and emerging sectors like cybersecurity, fintech, IT and advanced manufacturing.
