Well done to Ryan Thomas who has recently won the Gold Award at the All Wales Industrial Electronics Final.
Coleg Cambria recently hosted 3 Advanced Welsh Engineering finals at their Deeside site as part of the Skills Competition Wales 2015 events which included Aircraft Maintenance, Electronics and Welding.
The three competitions attracted top talent from across Wales including students from Coleg Cambria, Cardiff and the Vale College, Gower College Swansea, Coleg Gwent, Grŵp Llandrillo Menai, MITEC Pembrokeshire and NPTC Group. A total of 37 young competitors battled it out in challenging tasks against each other and the clock.
The Electronics competition required competitors to work individually on set timed task, demonstrating their level of skill in practical project building, fault finding and repair, test and measurement and Circuit design.
"By offering Ryan a Work Experience placement within BSC, the Company has definitely had a significant impact on Ryan’s learning journey and I thank you for your continued support."

BSC are pleased to be involved in this collaborative initiative with Gower College that aims to ease the transition between Education and Employment for its students. For the second time BSC has found one of its work experience placements to be in receipt of a prestigious award.
As a local Company, BSC have been impressed with the calibre of both the College’s Engineering and Electronic facilities and the quality of learning that was being provided to students, practically on our doorstep. This collaborative initiative of linking local employers with skilled students brings benefits both parties and as a local employer, BSC are encouraged that the College is committed to bridging the gap between the learning and the work place environment.
