Congratulations to Simon Davies, Gareth Morgan and Benjamin Morgan who took the top three places, respectively, in the recent SkillAuto competitions held at Coleg Glan Hafren.
The competition is growing from strength-to-strength with a record number of entries totalling almost 1,000 across the UK this year. These three lads will be hoping to join the best-of-the-best in the SkillAuto UK finals later this year, where competitors will have a chance of becoming part of the UK squad that will compete at WorldSkills Leipzig in 2013.
Coleg Glan Hafren’s Automotive Academy, which played host to this Welsh heat, is one of only eight Ford Apprenticeship Centres in the UK. The college offers over 30 automotive courses to over 600 students in total, so was particularly well equipped to stage this prestigious competition. We were also pleased to support this competition as part of our skillscompetition Wales programme.
We have some great photos of the competition on our flickr gallery and you can also view further video coverage posted on Coleg Glan Hafren’s YouTube channel.
