Background 

EDSB Compliance Solutions are national providers of Fire & Security, Electrical, Mechanical, Passive Fire & Water Hygiene solutions. 

As part of our commitment to build the best teams possible, we have developed an apprentice and mentor scheme to further grow our own talent within the business.

Scheme Launch 

The EDSB apprenticeship scheme was launched in 2019, when we recognised that we had a gap in terms of trainees and apprentices within the business.   

In addition to the college training, all of our apprentices are paired with a Senior Engineer, who acts as their mentor throughout their training. They are there to provide valuable support, practical advice, and encouragement.  

Successes at EDSB 

Throughout the last few years, we have had teams of apprentices studying for their NVQ.  The course combines a mixture of learning styles from theory in the classroom to self study. 

We are delighted that our first three apprentices all qualified at the end of 2022 and are now fully qualified engineers, working in both the Install and Service teams. 

The Future Pipeline 

Within our current team of apprentices, we have some who are on a fast track route to qualification, others who are nearing their EPA, along with newly recruited apprentices, just starting out on their journey. 

For all of our apprentices, we are delighted to be able to provide a springboard for them to launch their careers in the Fire & Security world...
