Apprentice of the Year 2007

Winner: Ian Scanlan

Ian started at the ITeC in October 2006 on a Signmaking Apprenticeship. Ian joined Sovereign Signs shortly after commencing his apprenticeship. Throughout his time on the course he has had excellent attendance at both the ITeC and his workplace and has made every effort to progress in both areas.  Ian became employed by Sovereign Signs in May of this year.  His workplace supervisors have commented on how well he has done in the fabrication department and how he has now stepped up to the next stage of his practical training. He can be left responsible for organizing and working from his own production sheets and deals with the welding & fabrication jobs from start to finish.

The Key Skills requirement for his Apprenticeship framework is Level 1 but Ian has completed his portfolio at Level 2 and also sat his Application of Number, Communications and Information Technology tests at Level 2 to improve on his own prior achievement.  Ian is on target to finish his framework on schedule if not before his targeted completion date.
