As part of this apprenticeship, you will study for a Level 3 Engineering Maintenance Technician (Dual Discipline) qualification, developing the knowledge and practical skills needed to maintain, inspect and repair the equipment that keeps National Grid's energy network operating safely and reliably.
Throughout the programme, you will study a range of topics, including:
- Mechanical and electrical engineering principles
- Planned and reactive maintenance techniques
- Fault finding, diagnosis and problem solving
- Electrical systems, equipment and control circuits
- Mechanical components, machinery and rotating plant
- Health, safety and environmental legislation
- Engineering drawings, technical documentation and schematics
- Continuous improvement and asset reliability
As a dual-discipline apprentice, you will gain experience across both mechanical and electrical engineering, building a broad understanding of how critical assets are maintained and operated within a complex engineering environment.
Alongside your studies, you'll work with experienced National Grid engineers, applying your learning to real-world maintenance activities that help ensure the safe and reliable delivery of energy to millions of homes and businesses across the UK.
By the end of the programme, you'll have achieved a nationally recognised Level 3 qualification and developed the skills, knowledge and behaviours needed to progress into a maintenance engineering career with National Grid.
