Apprenticeship programs at Keighley Labs are more than just opportunities – they are gateways to long-term careers and meaningful contributions to the engineering and manufacturing industry.

Apprenticeships are an integral part of Keighley Labs’ DNA. We’ve seen firsthand the immense value that apprentices bring to our business, and it’s a privilege to watch their growth and development. Events like this at Keighley College allow us to connect with the next generation of talent, share our passion for what we do, and demonstrate the incredible opportunities we offer.
