Cameron Richardson
September 26, 2024
Cameron Richardson joined Middlesbrough College as a school leaver studying Level 3 Mechanical PEO. When Cameron passed his course successfully, the College reached out to him to apply for a Level 3 Mechanical Engineering BTEC apprenticeship.
Cameron said “I was happy that I got the apprenticeship, I was hoping to gain one at the time so that I could start earning alongside a qualification. Looking back, I’m glad that it worked out and I didn’t go down the university route as I would rather be practical as I am learning. I would recommend to anyone thinking of it, to go for it!”
Cameron recently finished his apprenticeship in July and gained Distinctions across the board! As well as gaining a full-time position as a Mechanical Technician with the estates team in Middlesbrough College. His day to day involves various upkeep and repairs across the college systems such as cooling, heating, water systems and more!
“My ambitions are to keep gaining qualifications and work my way up in the industry, and hopefully become mechanical lead!”
