The Apprentice of the Year Award
|
|
This award
takes the form of a cheque, a refrigeration text book, and one weeks
outward bound course, but is entirely at the discretion of the assessment
committee, which may divide or withhold the award. Although selection will be made on the
merits of the apprentices, the award will be coupled with the name of their employer.
Apprentices must be employed and working in Scotland. They should normally have completed
three year's and have started their fourth year. A 100/500 word hand written
statement by the apprentice about his training and career in Refrigeration/Air
Conditioning must accompany applications.

At our annual
dinner in November 2002, we were pleased to announce that sponsorship
towards this award was received from the following companies:
Hussmann (Europe) Ltd. who, along
with the prize money for the winners, offered a set of
ASHRAE data books.
HRP Ltd. offered £300 towards
tools, and given entirely to the discretion of the assessment
committee, to decide how this is to be divided towards the recipients.
ACR Today Magazine offered
copies of the book "World Below Zero" a history of
refrigeration and air conditioning in the UK, to be given to all candidates of this
award.
The Scottish branch would like to pass onto them our thanks, and they
should be secure in the
knowledge that the recipients will benefit from their kind generosity.
