The Scania R-Cab will become part of the core equipment used for the IMI Level 2 and 3 motor vehicle maintenance and repair apprenticeship within the college’s Motor Vehicle and Logistics Academy.
“Getting the younger generation interested in our industry today is a challenge across all business areas, so we believe opportunities like this are crucial to attracting new talent,” says Graham Broughton , TruckEast’s regional aftersales director.
“With the addition of this truck, Northampton College will continue to develop apprentices and therefore increase the number of qualified technicians within the region,” he says.
Currently, the college has 26 HGV apprentices, who will use the training vehicle for diagnostics and routine maintenance training.
