The TIP Mechanic Academy is now recruiting for the first cohort in an accelerated nine-month training course that will provide the skills and knowledge to be able to carry out trailer inspections and some limited repairs (for example, removing and replacing parts such as brake chambers and slack adjusters). Like trailblazer apprenticeships, individual technicians will be employed to work in a specific location, and the group of 9-12 will assemble for one week a month for classroom training in a new facility at TIP's ten-bay Nuneaton, Warwickshire site. There, they will learn about tyres, axles, brakes, electrics, suspension and superstructures, with both digital and physical resources. The classroom will have a digital whiteboard and custom-fabricated trailer teaching rigs with air brake and electrical circuits. |
