Angus Training Group

Good Morning 😃

A couple of updates:

To complete the training for our current 1st year apprentices, the Centre will not be closing for the usual 3 weeks summer break this year.

Our new intake of apprentices this year will start with us on Monday 7 September 2020. Due to the COVID-19 situation, the start date for the new intake has had to be put back from the normal mid-August start.

For all 2020 applicants, please remember to check e-mails regularly and answer any telephone calls you receive in case this is companies trying to get in touch with you regarding an apprenticeship.

As mentioned before, if you decide you are no longer interested in an apprenticeship for whatever reason, staying on at school, got another job or such like, then please let us know so we can update our records to avoid wasting anyone’s time. You can do this by e-mailing Vanessa on vanessa@atgltd.co.uk

Our member companies have and will be accessing our online portal of successful applications in the coming weeks so please ensure you check your e-mails regularly (including spam/junk folders) and also answer any telephone calls you receive as this could be companies trying to get in touch with you regarding an apprenticeship.

If you are no longer interested in an apprenticeship this year, please let us know so we can update our records and avoid wasting the time of companies, you and ourselves. You can do this by e-mailing vanessa@atgltd.co.uk

Good luck!!

We are pleased to say the Centre is now re-open and welcome back the first year apprentices today to complete their first year off-the-job training.

There will be skeleton office staff in from Monday as well with the remaining staff continuing to work remotely from home.

Just a reminder to all applicants for this year’s intake to check your e-mails regularly and respond to any you receive promptly, with the same applying to any telephone calls you may receive.  This could be companies who are interested in your application trying to get in touch with you regarding an apprenticeship.  Companies will have access to our online portal of applications over the coming weeks and therefore may be in touch over this period.
