Coleg Glynllifon students awarded certificates for work on railways

Coleg Glynllifon students have been awarded certificates in recognition of their work experience on the Ffestiniog & Welsh Highland Railways.

As a group, the students have completed an outstanding 800 hours of work experience from last November to May this year.

The railways’ work placement officer, Erfyl Williams said: “It is our second year working with Coleg Glynllifon and it has been great to see the group’s confidence growing each week.

“They have been able to develop their social skills and team building as well as learning some practical line side and track work skills. All of these things help prepare them for the world of work.”
