“One of the many highlights is seeing kids come to site green, develop their skills and mature to an above-standard apprentice. Apprentices have gained invaluable experience, working on state-of-the-art technology in the new gas conditioning plant and, also, working on older equipment that teaches them how to reverse-engineer a repair”
