Aleksandar Karic
European Projects Manager | Alltech Limited

I started my role of European Projects Manager with a strong technology background, but I lacked the knowledge and experience in electrical control panels, controls and automation which became a large part of my day-to-day job. After discussing the options with Vogal, we agreed the best path, and the company I work for supported me in enrolling on the Performing Engineering Operations (electrical pathway) Level 2 Apprenticeship.
Everyone I came across during my one-year course was extremely helpful and the students were focused. Starting with my mentor who was always there for further explanation, the functional skills coordinator and administration personnel, literally everyone was always there to support me if I needed their help.
After finishing the course, I’ve gained the knowledge I needed and have since successfully completed several projects involving control panels wiring, PLC programming and designing user interface (HMI). The course has given me the necessary knowledge of automation and controls systems and has sparked my interest in the field, and I am now starting a HE Apprenticeship to expand my knowledge further.
I would certainly recommend Vogal training centre to anyone who seeks hands-on education provided in a friendly and helpful environment.
