Congratulations to our May apprentice of the month, Henry Parmenter! 🎉

Henry is a Building Services Engineering apprentice and works for the engineering design consultancy and planning specialist "Syntegra Group" in their MEP (Mechanical Electrical and Plumbing) subsidiary, Building Services Group, in Priory Road, Tonbridge.

Congratulating him, Sam Phillips, BSG Senior Electrical Engineer, said: “Henry started out with the company when he completed his Year 12 Work Experience Placement for one week. He made a great impression with his attitude and desire to learn but also how quickly he picked up the tasks we set him."

Ourfirst year Level 3 Sport and Sport & Exercise Science students recently had an incredible opportunity to take part in a joint university visit and Wembley Stadium tour, in partnership with UniConnect and the MidKent College Careers Team.

During the visit, students met with UCFB and gained valuable insight into their courses, potential career pathways, and the achievements of their alumni. It was inspiring to hear first-hand about the diverse opportunities available within the sports industry.

A real highlight of the day was seeing how UCFB students benefit from access to Wembley Stadium itself. From using the facilities for learning to engaging with professionals in media, coaching, and the wider sports business environment, it was a fantastic chance to experience the industry in action.

A brilliant and inspiring day for all involved!

If you want real experiences that prepare you for a career in sport, there's still time to apply 👉 www.midkent.ac.uk/courses/subjects/sport-fitness-leisure
