He did it! A huge congratulations to Bradley Hughes on completing his Maintenance Engineering apprenticeship.

Bradley’s apprenticeship journey took seven years, longer than most, but he kept working towards the goal and has now achieved something he can be incredibly proud of.

Along the way, different ATNZ Account Managers supported Bradley as he continued working towards becoming qualified.

Not every apprenticeship journey follows the same path or timeline. Bradley’s story is a great reminder that persistence pays off.

And there’s more good news.

Bradley has now joined Pinnacle Engineering, where he’s loving his new role and putting his skills and experience to work as a trade-qualified Maintenance Engineering tradesperson.

Seven years of learning, experience and perseverance, and now a whole new chapter ahead.

Well done, Bradley. This one was definitely worth the wait!

Congratulations to Connor Tonks on completing his Fitting and Machining apprenticeship

Connor is pictured at Myriad Engineering in Seaview, Wellington, alongside Managing Director Jayden Jessup and Workshop Manager Mitchell Spencer.

And there’s a great story behind this photo.

Mitchell is himself a former ATNZ apprentice. Today, he’s Myriad’s Workshop Manager, helping develop the next generation of skilled tradespeople coming through the business.

Now Connor has reached that important milestone himself: qualified.

And the pipeline continues.

Myriad has taken on two new apprentices this year, continuing to invest in its people alongside its investment in advanced CNC machining technology, including the new machining centre pictured behind the team.

A former apprentice leading the workshop. A newly qualified tradesperson. And another generation coming through behind them.

Congratulations, Connor, on a fantastic achievement, and thanks to Jayden, Mitchell and the whole Myriad team for their continued commitment to apprenticeship training.

Wearing a welding helmet isn’t enough. It has to be ready to protect you.

A helmet can look fine and still have a problem. A damaged cover lens, incorrect settings, a faulty auto-darkening filter or the wrong shade can all compromise the protection it provides.

This month’s ATNZ Toolbox Talk is all about welding helmet safety and the checks to make before striking the arc.

✅ Choose the correct shade
✅ Check the shell, lenses and headgear
✅ Test auto-darkening filters
✅ Make sure grinding mode is off
✅ Use the right respiratory protection
✅ Clean, maintain and store your helmet correctly

Choose it. Check it. Maintain it.

A proper check only takes a few moments. Make it part of the job, every time.

A qualification earned, and a great career already taking shape.

Congratulations to Declan Lowies from Summit Hydraulic Solutions in Rotorua, who has completed his Fitting and Machining apprenticeship with ATNZ.

Declan has been an outstanding apprentice. He’s worked hard, applied himself throughout his training, and consistently impressed with his attitude and commitment.

Now all that effort has paid off. Declan is qualified and staying on with Summit to continue building his career as a tradesperson.

It’s a great outcome for Declan and for the team who have invested in his development from apprentice through to qualified tradesperson.

And that drive seems to extend well beyond work. Declan is also a keen runner and gym-goer, so he’s no stranger to setting a goal and putting in the work to reach it.

Congratulations, Declan — a fantastic achievement and very well deserved.

And well done to everyone at Summit Hydraulic Solutions who have supported him along the way.

The trade might run in the family, but this qualification is all Allan’s.

Congratulations to Allan Mathias from South Freeze in Christchurch, who has completed his Refrigeration and Air Conditioning apprenticeship with ATNZ.

Allan has followed his father into the refrigeration and air conditioning trade, and now he’s earned his own qualification.

It’s a great family connection, but completing an apprenticeship takes plenty of work in its own right. Years of learning on the job, building technical skills and putting them into practice have brought Allan to this moment.

Congratulations Allan, and well done to the team at South Freeze for supporting him along the way.

From completing his apprenticeship to Level 5 in just two years.

Michael Kocian from Perfect Air in Whitianga completed his apprenticeship in 2024.

Now, just two years later, he’s completed his Level 5 qualification too.

And Michael already had another trade under his belt. He’s also a qualified electrician.

That makes for an impressive combination of skills, but it’s the progression that makes this one worth celebrating. Michael became trade qualified and kept going, taking the next opportunity to develop his skills even further.

Congratulations, Michael, on another fantastic achievement!

And a big shout-out to the team at Perfect Air for continuing to support him along the way.
