Pat Allen, who leads the employers group running the trailblazer apprenticeship, said: “The FIA, FSA and BSIA urge the entire fire, emergency and security industry to complete our joint skills survey, which aims to take a snapshot of where the sector is right now.

“With the trailblazer apprenticeship set to formally launch shortly, it’s an exciting time for our sector, with employers set to hire a new generation of engineers and installers of the future.”
