NAPIT Approved Training Available in Norwich
East of England Electrical Training (EEET) opened a new training centre in Norwich on Thursday 27th August. The official opening ceremony was attended by Chloe Smith, Member of Parliament for Norwich North, who cut the ribbon on the new centre.
City & Guilds has awarded full Centre and Qualification Approval to East of England Electrical Training and the centre is also fully accredited by Blue Flame Certification and approved by NAPIT.
Mike Smith, Technical Director at EEET, said: The need for a high quality centre to support the electrical industry in the region is clear following the unfortunate closure of Eagit Training in July 2014, which for many years provided the backbone of both formal qualifications and bespoke training for the sector in Norwich, Norfolk and beyond. We were keen to ensure that not only the facilities for training but the wealth of teaching experience would not be lost to the local industry by opening this new centre and we are extremely grateful for NAPIT's support in this.
Chloe Smith, Member of Parliament for Norwich North, said: It's great to see that the centre is already engaged with local industry employers, both large and small, who are seeking to make use of the training provision available. I was proud to attend the opening of such a fantastic venture for the region.
Ian Halton, Training and Business Relationship Director at NAPIT, said: We feel it is imperative to continue to bridge the skills gap that is currently evident in the construction industry. With the opening of the new training centre approved by NAPIT, another step has been taken to ensure that training is available to installers across as many regions of the UK as possible.
