Skills Bootcamp in Green Skills: Hiten & Max’s Journey

When the world of electrical work is changing fast, it helps to stay ahead of the curve. Our Skills Bootcamp in Green Skills at Leicester is giving qualified electricians the practical training, confidence, and industry insight they need to make that leap, and we’ve seen it first‑hand through learners like Hiten and Max.

Why They Joined

Hiten has years of experience across domestic, commercial, and industrial electrical work, but he knew the industry was shifting: solar panels, EV charge points and renewables are no longer the future, they’re here now.

“I wanted to get a wider understanding of where the market is moving… a lot of people are looking at this stuff, so I wanted to get involved".

For Max, 23, it was about growing his own electrical business. He saw the Skills Bootcamp in Green Skills as the perfect way to expand into solar PV and EV charging.

“It’s an aspect I want to push my company into, solar and EV chargers. It’s worth doing if you want to go down this part of the trade".

What They’re Learning

Both learners are getting stuck into the course, building their knowledge and preparing for practical work:

• Solid industry knowledge: theory sessions have covered how solar systems work, what components are involved and why they matter.

• Tutor support: learners highlight the approachable and helpful teaching style, making complex concepts easier to understand.

“Workpays have been pretty straightforward. I didn’t think it was real at first when I heard it was free, but here we are. I’d recommend it to others". — Hiten
