Skills Competition Lessons From A Level One Apprentice ft. Emma

We talk with Emma Giordano right after the Centennial skills competition and unpack what it feels like to compete as a new apprentice. We get into confidence, learning habits, and why the urge to rebuild and understand systems can shape the kind of technician you become.  • taking on a 200 question automotive test as a level one student  • navigating stations that include unfamiliar diagnostics and automatic transmissions  • showing up because instructors encourage you and backing yourself anyway  • using the competition certificate to stand out on a resume or LinkedIn  • relearning how to study after time away from school and asking questions early  • what makes fuels and electrical click and why diesel basics surprise people  • pushing back on the replace it mindset and finding pride in rebuilding  • dealing with a long commute and building a routine around early studying  • dream vehicle picks and the TV show that never gets boring  All right, folks, if you have any questions or comments or recommendations about things we can talk about, you can leave an email. The email is below.  If you have any content or discussion topics contact us at icampbell@centennialcollege.ca.  Cheers folks!
