Since the launch of its official apprenticeship program in 2018, A B Graphic International (ABG) has remained firmly committed to investing in young engineering talent. The program has already welcomed more than 32 apprentices.
Today, ABG has 18 apprentices, including this year’s in- take, training across various departments. These include areas like mechanical, electrical, and the company’s in- house machine shop. ABG’s multi-skilled apprenticeship model provides hands-on, real-world experience along- side structured college learning. This way, trainees can earn a qualification while developing practical expertise that can only be gained on the job.
