Aviation Engineering Secondary School Trades Course

Aiden Treston

Course: Engineering - Aviation
Graduated: Graduate 2014

“I enjoyed Trades Academy because it was away from school and you get to learn in a different environment. The course allowed me to get some experience and get the chance to look at the aviation industry.”

I really enjoyed working in the workshops. Trades opened up another world for me and it helped me to make up my mind about the sort of thing I wanted to do after I left school.”

In 2016, Aiden won a scholarship from Wineworks Blenheim to support his training at NMIT. He currently works for Cuddon Engineering in Blenheim.
