Our training centre took its third intake this month — paid from day one, with a workshop place waiting at the end.
The third intake started this month: twelve apprentices, six of them women, on a two-year programme that runs four days in the workshop and one in the classroom. They are paid from the first day, because an unpaid apprenticeship selects for family money rather than ability.
The syllabus is ours, written against the jobs we actually do: diagnostics, brakes and suspension, air conditioning, bodywork preparation, and a full high-voltage module in the second year. Every apprentice finishes having signed off real work under a named technician.
At the end, each one gets a guaranteed interview with us and a portfolio of documented jobs to take anywhere else. Nine of the first intake's twelve are still with us; two moved to workshops in Nablus and Hebron, which we count as a success rather than a loss.
Applications for the fourth intake open in November. There is no requirement for prior experience — only that you can explain why you want to spend two years learning to do this properly.
