Conal McCrissican, from Downpatrick, a Level 3 Electrical Installation apprentice at South Eastern Regional College (SERC), has beaten off stiff competition at the Northern Ireland Regionals of the SPARKS Apprentice of the Year, securing a place in the Grand Final of the UK wide competition which will be held on 24 September 2020.

A South Eastern Regional College (@S_ERC) lecturer has been named a Silver Award winner in the prestigious Pearson National Teaching Awards and is now in the running for Gold. Stefanie Campbell, Deputy Head of the Learning Academy at SERC, is one of only 76 Silver Award winners across the UK, selected from thousands of nominations. Stefanie is honoured in the Digital Innovator of the Year category for her outstanding commitment to changing the lives of the learners and staff on all SERC campuses. The Award follows on the success of the College’s BTEC Award for College of the Year announced in June.

@S_ERC has welcomed the announcement from @Economy_NI Minister Diane Dodds, that employers will be offered £3,700 for every apprentice that they bring back from furlough and retain until they have completed their apprenticeship.
