Train with JTL

We’re a not-for-profit charity, offering advanced apprenticeships in electrical installation, engineering maintenance, mechanical engineering services comprising plumbing, alongside heating and ventilating in 10 regions across England and Wales.

We work with employers to provide the training to support their apprentices with off-the-job learning and the knowledge elements of the programme, including both classroom and practical workshop learning as well as monitoring and assessing apprentices in the workplace.
