Smart Home Technician Apprenticeship Launches in UK

In the UK, the home technology industry is facing tough recruitment times. Too much work, not enough staff is a familiar cry. So, what can be done about it? Well, apprentices could be one part of that solution.

The theme for National Apprenticeship Week which began on 7th February 2022 is ‘Build The Future’. In the latest episode of the AWE sponsored podcast, The Integrated Home, we find out how that theme relates to our own sector and look at from Matt Nimmons, CEDIA EMEA’s Managing Director, Chhaya Landschultz from integrator, IndigoZest and Natalie Little from training provider, Skills4Stem.

It’s a wide-ranging discussion which shares real experiences and feedback on the Smart Home Technician Apprenticeship and brings integrators practical advice on how they can bring apprentices into their business.
