National Apprenticeship Week 2023

National Apprenticeship Week – Skills for Life

It’s national apprenticeship week – promoting the career opportunities available through apprenticeships. 


The electrical engineering industry has a long tradition of apprenticeships – it’s a great way to gain the qualifications, experience, and knowledge required to build skills for life and a successful career in the construction and engineering sector.


This year we are looking to take on one new electrical apprentice to expand our team. Based in Bracknell Berkshire, it is a full-time paid position with all training costs, tools, and workwear included – leading to a level 3 qualification as an electrician, with potential opportunities to progress within our company on completion.


The first 3 years consist of 1 day a week in college (typically Bracknell & Wokingham) studying theory and practical skills and 4 days a week working with us on site gaining experience and knowledge. The fourth and final year is full time on site to really demonstrate the knowledge and skills, with the AM2 trade test as the final stage to qualify as an electrician. Rates of pay increase each year depending on progress and development. We are proud of our in-house training and skilled team and offer great opportunities, holiday leave, and competitive rates of pay.

At Matt Browning Ltd - Electrical Contractors, we speak from experience with our company Director and leading engineer having completed his apprenticeship in the mid 1990’s. Since then, we have trained our own electrical apprentices, who started as school leavers or year 1 college students and after 4 years finished their apprenticeship as qualified electricians with our most recent apprentices achieving AM2 results 99% and taking up full time jobs with us.


If you are interested in applying for our apprenticeship programme, please email us with your details and a CV / cover letter.

LED lighting upgrade installed in a school, providing cost savings though energy efficient lighting
September 9, 2024
At Matt Browning Electrical, our experienced electricians can upgrade old fluorescent lighting in nurseries, schools, colleges, and universities with the latest LED lighting technology - not only improving lighting performance and reducing future maintenance costs, but also delivering significant cost reductions through reduced energy consumption. We were recently asked to upgrade the old fluorescent lighting in classroom and corridor areas in this school building. Our complimentary site survey found many of the fluorescent tubes and control-gear components had failed, and with fluorescent lighting technology being phased out for environmental and energy saving reasons, we provided a fixed price quote for an LED lighting upgrade. We supplied & installed LED lighting from Ansell and low glare lighting from Ovia in classroom areas. With automatic control through occupancy sensors and dimmable controls for the classroom, performance has improved whilst energy costs have reduced.
