MechElec Engineering Apprentice
The journey begins with you.
Our industry-recognised engineering apprenticeship schemes are a great way to kick-start your career. This MechElec Apprenticeship will give you the knowledge and skills to become a world-class engineer, achieve your career and financial goals, and gain a trade for life.
Unlike schemes at other companies, the Stagecoach Apprenticeship Scheme offers unlimited support, with a dedicated mentor throughout the four years. You will meet regularly with managers and engineering directors for advice and guidance, and start the course with a comprehensive toolkit.
You can join our apprenticeship programs at various locations across the UK, starting in August or September each year. Regardless of your learning location, you will complete the same tasks, providing equal opportunities for all candidates.
How The Apprenticeship Works
Stagecoach engineering apprenticeships span four years, structured to provide comprehensive learning and skill development. The first three years involve practical learning at our bus depots, working alongside skilled technicians and using the latest diagnostic technology.
Year 1
* Overview of all vehicle systems, including health and safety, tools & equipment, inspections, wheels & tyres, braking principles, steering & suspension, engines, electrical principles, air & fuel, cooling & lubrication, and transmission & drivelines.
Year 2
* Deeper focus on electrical systems, body electrics, transmission and drivelines, and component removal & replacement.
Year 3
* Advanced diagnostics for body & electrical, engine, chassis, and transmission; vehicle & component inspections; diagnosing & repairing components.
Alongside practical learning, you'll attend a specialised training college, working towards achieving the Bus and Coach Engineering Technician Standard in England and Wales or the Modern Apprenticeship in Scotland.
The final year is a bespoke program, endorsed and certified by the Institute of the Motor Industry, pairing you with an experienced mentor to consolidate your skills.
Upon successful completion, you will be eligible for membership at the Society of Operations Engineers, further enriching your professional journey.
