Course Overview

The Metal Fabricator occupation is found in the advanced manufacturing engineering and engineering construction sectors. The broad purpose of the occupation is to carry out metal fabrication work using rolled steel joists, columns, channels, steel plates and metal sheets.

Work includes anything that can be fabricated out of metal - such as bridges, oil rigs, ships, petrochemical installations, cranes, platforms, aircraft, automotive and machinery parts, sheet metal enclosures and equipment supports. Fabricators can work alone or in teams, in factories or on operational sites.

Entry Requirements

Candidates will typically have 4 GCSEs at Grade C/4 or equivalent, including Mathematics, English and a Science.

However individual employers will set the recruitment and selection criteria for their apprentices.

If you do not hold the relevant Mathematics and English qualifications, you will be expected to undertake Functional Skills at Level 2 in both subjects.

Please note: Where wearing PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) is a mandatory requirement of the course, it is the responsibility of the learner to ensure that they are able to wear such equipment.

Career Options and Progression

If you successfully achieve all parts of the apprenticeship, your Skills Coach will discuss your next steps to take.
