STAR and GAteway programs for secondary schools

Overview

These programs are designed for Secondary School students who wish to have “taster” courses whilst still at school. This is a great way for young people to find out what the Motor Industry involves, and at the same time gather some credits they can use later should they choose to have a career in the Motor Industry.

The units offered are from Level 2 and a package is designed for each individual student in association with their secondary school.
