DarbyTech recently took part in National Apprenticeship Week, visiting several education providers across the Tees Valley to inspire the next generation of engineers. As part of the initiative, the DarbyTech team delivered sessions at Redcar & Cleveland College, Hartlepool College of Further Education, and Outwood Academy, speaking with students about their future career options in engineering. The visits were designed to support school leavers as they begin to consider their next steps into further education or employment. DarbyTech introduced students to the wide range of opportunities available within the engineering sector and emphasised that there is no single “correct” pathway into the profession. During the sessions, students learned about both the traditional academic route—progressing through A-levels and university degrees—and the apprenticeship pathway, which allows individuals to earn while they learn, while gaining practical, industry-based experience from the outset. DarbyTech also demonstrated how hands-on learning and modern training equipment are helping students develop real-world technical skills before entering the workplace. By combining theoretical knowledge with practical experience, the company aims to help prepare future engineers for careers across industries, including energy, manufacturing, and emerging clean technologies. The team said they were delighted to work with the colleges and schools involved, highlighting the importance of collaboration between education providers and industry to ensure students have the information and support they need to make confident decisions about their futures. DarbyTech thanked the institutions for welcoming them and expressed their excitement about seeing the next generation of engineers develop their skills and thrive within the industry.
