Main Apprenticeship Provider

We have built an exceptional reputation over the last 50 years for providing an outstanding service, high quality teaching and adopting a flexible approach to accommodate specific employer needs.

We are looking forward to bringing this expertise to our Apprenticeship delivery.

As a long-established provider of NDT training, examinations, and consultancy services, we are in a prime position to offer the next generation of NDT Technicians a new career route into the industry.

Our team of 27 industry certified trainers are on hand to provide support and guidance throughout the apprenticeship journey. We offer a blend of bespoke training and support at the workplace, remote online learning options, as well as hands-on practical tuition at our purpose-built training facilities.

“We have recognised the national skills gap in the NDT sector which we would like to bridge: there is a huge demand for technicians, with very few individuals entering the industry to meet this need. Our aim is to boost the industry with highly trained professionals across the board.”

Nicola Dodsley, Operations Director of Lavender International

Sam Tulloch

Head of NDT, Rolls Royce Submarines

The set-up of the new technician’s scheme with Lavenders was brilliant… they were very helpful, planning and rearranging their elements of the training around our emerging needs. In the first year of delivery, a very responsive and strong partnership has been formed, with an exceptional level of service provided. The team understands student progress, and their expertise has been evident.”
