Fire safety and security solutions provider Chubb has congratulated apprentice Cameron Mahoney for winning the First Year Apprentice of the Year award from New College Lanarkshire (NCL), the provider of fire and security apprenticeships in Scotland, at this year’s Scottish Apprenticeship Week (March 6-13).
He beat 61 other students to the New College Lanarkshire trophy and said: “I’m proud to have won the award out of so many people.”
NCL also commended two other Chubb apprentices, Cameron Matthew and Owen Craig, for being in the top 10 during the award ceremony held at the college on 9 March.
NCL fire and security assessor Scott Shanks said: “Cameron has been a fantastic student since he arrived and has excelled at everything we have asked of him.”
His win was based on an assessment of his college work and his attitude, positivity and commitment to the apprenticeship.
Chubb general manager John Stewart said: “The win showed the company’s ongoing commitment to invest in young people and bring them into the industry.”
The company also won the Large Employer of the Year category in recognition of its commitment to working in partnership with New College Lanarkshire over many years to support apprentices through to successful achievement.
