"MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt">MidKent College students bagged first and second place at this year’s JTL South East Regional Awards, walking away with more than £1,000 in prize funds.

 

The prestigious competition saw 11 winning electrical and plumbing apprentices assessed on their practical site-based work and the achievement of their apprenticeship framework. Maidstone-based MidKent College electrician Ross Mills was named Best Apprentice, with Medway-based Phillip Hadaway awarded a close second.

 

“These awards honour the top electrical and plumbing apprentices in the region,” said the college’s faculty head for construction and building services, Stuart Nice. “It was fantastic to see three of our students nominated and even better to witness two being awarded winning trophies.”

 

23 year old Best Apprentice, Ross Mills of Paddock Wood is tipped to do well in the national competition, which will see him up against nine other regional winners from across the UK.
