An Elecrtical board that may br used for training during a MOET Apprenticeship
A MOET apprenticeship (Manufacturing and Operations Engineering Technician apprenticeship), ensures apprentices know how to maintain the safety, integrity, and effective operation of a plant and its equipment within an industry. This training is sector-specific; however, the fundamentals will be the same for all.

The intensive training during this MOET apprenticeship includes 20 weeks at the Swarm REAGIT centre in Norwich, 100 hours! Focus at this stage will include health and safety, hand tools plus traditional engineering techniques, machining, electrical installation, welding including basic fabrication, and working with and understanding documentation.

The Manufacturing and Operations Engineering apprentices will learn preventative, reactive, and decommissioning maintenance skills during their MOET apprenticeship.
