There no better way to boost your career – and have a fun day out at the same time – than by attending SPARKS EXPO 2010, the only trade show aimed directly at trainee electricians.
If you're just starting your career in the plumbing or electrical fields, there's only one place to be this spring: twin exhibitions at Newbury Racecourse, just south of the M4 between Reading and Swindon.
The well-established HIP!-EX 2010 for plumbers, and the second-year running SPARKS EXPO 2010 for all electrotechnical trainees, both take place on Wednesday 21 April and Thursday 22 April, and are packed with things to do, people to meet, new products to explore and tons to learn. Plus, as always, students get a free goody bag and we’re being extra generous with the freebies this year!
Last year over 4,000 trainee plumbers and electricians attended, and we're expecting an even greater turnout this year.
Colleges from as far afield as Derby, South Devon and Wales enjoyed the show in 2009, with their presence thrilling many of the exhibitors. We expect an even greater turn-out for 2010.
All the big names in the electrical world will be there: Megger, Metrel, NICEIC, ELECSA, NAPIT, Voltimum, Click Scolmore, HellermannTyton, Wera Tools, Electrical Safety Council and many more. They'll all have competitions and other fun and games on their stands, with plenty of new products to demonstrate, and all especially geared to guys like you, just starting out in the business. SPARKS EXPO is nothing like other trade shows: it's aimed directly at students, and is way livelier than any other show you've ever heard of, or will ever go to again!
Amongst the event highlights are:
Sparks LIVE sponsored by Click Scolmore
Go head-to-head with other students at a wide range of quizzes and competitions at Sparks LIVE, as hosted throughout the two days by TV presenter and Big Brother winner Craig Phillips, perhaps Britain's most famous builder. You can sign up to take part on the day, and there are some fantastic prizes to be won! (Virtually no-one goes home empty-handed!)
UK Apprentice Electrician of the Year 2010: The Live Finals!
New this year, SPARKS EXPO 2010 hosts a sister competition to UK Apprentice Plumber of the Year. Same tough challenges, but with an even more (ahem) 'electric' atmosphere!
