National Apprenticeship Week is shining a light on the positive impact that apprenticeships make to individuals, businesses such as TP Matrix, and the wider economy.

This year’s “Skills for Life” theme certainly holds true at TP Matrix, reinforcing how apprenticeships help individuals to gain the skills and knowledge required for a rewarding career, and businesses to develop a talented, future-ready workforce.

TP Matrix has a longstanding commitment to training from within and creating the next generation of electronics engineers.

Our apprenticeship scheme enables us to grow our own talent, pass on valuable knowledge from our highly-skilled engineers, and identify the individuals who will become our team leaders, managers, test engineers, and technicians of the future.

Ian Entwistle, operations manager, commented: “As a forward-looking company, TP Matrix prides itself on its apprentice scheme which ensures our skill set is complemented and secured for the future.

“In partnership with Oldham Training Centre (OTC), TP Matrix’s four strong apprentices have a clear pathway for their development and success, one that we’re happy to say they are flourishing on.”
