Help protect the future of Britain’s Labs

The Government’s Trailblazer initiative is set to improve and develop apprenticeships in 29 different industry sectors across Britain. Owner of Sparkle Dental Labs, Mustafa Mohammed, is leading the way to create a programme designed specifically for dental technicians.

 

Apprenticeships can give young people the opportunity to learn on the job, building essential experience and practical skills to enable them to become experts in their chosen field. Through high quality training and mentoring, businesses can create a motivated, skilled and highly qualified workforce.

 

Committed to spreading the word and raising awareness for dental technician apprenticeships, Sparkle Dental Labs recently welcomed a selection of esteemed professionals to its remarkable premises in Leeds. The event, held in celebration of the company’s first year of business, also presented a fantastic opportunity to increase support for the apprenticeships.

 

MP for Harrogate and Knaresborough, Andrew Jones, was in attendance and commented: “Apprenticeships are one of the most important parts of education in Britain…I believe few sectors will however create as much excitement and as much drive as the dental laboratory industry has, and for that I would like to congratulate everyone involved.”

 

Delroy Beverley, Chairman of The National Apprenticeship Ambassadors Task Force for Yorkshire and Humberside, further highlighted the importance of the apprenticeship scheme and offered high praise for Mustafa Mohammed and the team at Sparkle Dental Labs: “Crucially, Mustafa has recognised the need to do something… Asking for no personal accolade, he has nurtured this idea and is dedicated to providing a blueprint that shows the Government and other businesses alike, that you really can ‘practice what you preach’. Sparkle Dental Labs is a great example of just this”.

 

Anthony Knowles, Head of Employer and Delivery Services with the National Apprenticeship Service, added: “The facilities at Sparkle Dental Labs are fantastic – something for Yorkshire to be proud of. I think this is matched by Mustafa’s approach to offer more chances of employment for young people… I would encourage as many business owners as possible to get involved with the scheme”.

 

The pioneering dental technician apprenticeship will offer an array of advantages for the British public with hugely increased employment opportunities and the chance to ‘earn while you learn’. Boosting the national economy and the UK dental lab industry in particular, participating employers will also benefit from enhanced productivity, lower staff turnover and an increased skill set among the company1,2.

 

Sparkle Dental Labs continues to lead the way in training and education. With established orthodontic and implant teams, all work is produced to the highest standard and tuition of the next generation of employees is second to none.
