our testimonials

When I finished secondary school, I was searching for an apprenticeship in engineering and discovered MKE. I applied straight away and it was the best decision I could have made.

I got the job of a multi skilled apprentice on my 16th birthday and since then I have grown so much as an individual while moving around the different departments in the company. If you want to learn valued life skills, engineering qualifications, and hands-on experience all while getting paid, this is the apprenticeship for you.
