At a major event held at the UBM offices in London in February 2017, the fire, emergency and security systems apprenticeship was officially launched with candidates expected to formally start their apprenticeships in September 2017.
The event was jointly organised by the apprenticeship employers group, alongside the Fire and Security Association (FSA), the Fire Industry Association (FIA) and the British Security Industry Association (BSIA).
Pat Allen, who leads the apprenticeship employers group, commented:
“The entire industry was able to collaborate and create a clear standard that will give apprentices the core skills and experience they require to become the engineers of tomorrow.
"The new apprenticeship will now provide an opportunity for employers within the fire, emergency and security sectors to work together and influence the future of our industry.”
