A wealth of experience

Created to deliver the highest quality training in a way that is convenient to both the apprentice and his/her employer, this flexible new programme is the result of close collaboration between three organisations – each a leader in its field.  This partnership provides the key (common) skills needed by every apprentice and the unrivalled technical expertise needed to underpin the practical work – the NVQ element of the programme.

Fork Lift Truck Association
The Fork Lift Truck Association (FLTA) is the UK’s independent authority on fork lift trucks. Its core members are fork lift truck dealers, manufacturers and maintenance companies, all of which work to an agreed Code of Practice. The competence of engineers is a key element of this code and we encourage and promote apprenticeships as the foundation for the skills and capabilities required.
Retail Motor Industry Training
Retail Motor Industry Training (Remit) has served both the independent and vehicle manufacturer sectors providing industry leading apprenticeship programmes across 10 disciplines. Today, Remit is the largest motor industry apprenticeship provider in the UK with circa 2,500 learners operating across England, Scotland, Wales and NI.
North Warwickshire and Hinckley College
North Warwickshire and Hinckley College (NWHC) provides a broad range of apprentice programmes and other qualifications to its local community. The college has worked with the FLTA for many years, both with the development of apprenticeship programmes and as the provider of advanced training for qualified service engineers.
