I know this is quite a long time for a response, but this is a message for KM.
I completed a medical engineering apprenticeship within my trust. I have been out of time for nearly 3 years now and are currently employed by the hospital in which I trained in.
The trust where I am based follows a regional apprenticeship scheme whaich looks at professions in engineering within a hospital environment.
An actual apprenticeship scheme has been put together for medical engineering and each candidate comes out with many qualifications.
HNC in electronics
ONC in electronics
Many city and guilds qualifications , too many to list!!
NVQ level 3 in medical engineering.
I found the apprenticeship brilliant and well worth every hour spent on log books and college work, when I look where I am now.
Senior technician and still only 23 years old!!
I hjave the apprenticeship scheme a lot to thank for. I just wish there was a lot more schemes available for others.
