Workshop Safety & Apprenticeship Terms

All apprentices must wear a welding helmet, safety goggles, flame-resistant clothing, welding gloves, steel-toe boots and hearing protection at all times while on the workshop floor. PPE is required from the first day of training.

No PPE, no floor access. Fire extinguishers, ventilation and marked walkways must never be obstructed. Only assigned equipment may be used, and any damaged tool or machine must be reported immediately rather than used. Horseplay and unsafe shortcuts are treated as a disciplinary matter.

A one-time registration fee of ₦15,000 applies at sign-up. The programme fee is separate and totals ₦600,000, made up of three installments (₦300,000, ₦200,000 and ₦100,000). A penalty of ₦5,000 per week applies to any overdue installment. Fee amounts and schedules are confirmed in the signed apprenticeship agreement.

Apprentices are expected to maintain regular attendance, follow instructor guidance and observe workshop conduct standards. Repeated breaches of safety rules or attendance requirements may result in suspension or termination from the programme.

A certificate is issued only after an apprentice completes all eight training stages and passes the required practical and theory assessment.

Personal and sponsor information submitted at registration (including NIN and identification documents) is used only for enrolment, safety and administrative purposes, and is not shared outside the company without consent except where required by law.

The company may terminate an apprenticeship for serious safety violations, repeated misconduct, or non-payment of programme fees, following the process set out in the signed agreement.
