Apprentices at Birmingham firm swap workshop for countryside at event
Apprentices from Birmingham-based engineering company adi Group recently swapped the workshop for the countryside.
To celebrate the 10-year anniversary of its Apprenticeship Academy, the firm hosted a special two-day event at The Edge Adventure Activities Centre in Shrewsbury, with 38 apprentices participating – its largest group to date.
The youngsters took part in a series of tasks designed to help improve their communication, teamwork, time management and problem-solving skills, as well as enhance their engineering know-how.
Alan Lusty, CEO, said: “Our apprentices are of vital importance to our business model and our strategic objectives. That’s why we invest in their development on a holistic level.
“Our annual Apprentice Awayday is one of the ways in which we enhance skills development, taking apprentices out of their normal working environment to help build their knowledge in positive, engaging ways.
