A day in the life of an apprentice electrician at The Electrical Academy

What does a typical training day look like for an apprentice electrician? In this video, we follow an apprentice through a day at The Electrical Academy, giving a realistic look at how learning is structured.

Practical learning and the fundamentals

Apprenticeship training blends hands-on practice with the theory and standards that underpin safe electrical work. From workshop tasks to guided tuition, the goal is steady progression, building competence step by step, and developing confidence that carries into real jobs.

Building habits that translate to site

Training is not only about completing tasks, it’s also about how you work. Organisation, safety awareness, communication and attention to detail become routines, and those routines matter when you’re part of a team on site.
