Throughout your industrial thermal insulation technician apprenticeship, you’ll ensure that the work meets high standards and follows the plans exactly. You’ll also be responsible for getting the materials needed, organising when tasks will be done, and making sure everything meets the required quality. Ultimately, you’ll become an expert in keeping equipment safe and workers protected, while also learning important skills in managing projects and ensuring quality work.
