WINNER – TRAINEE OF THE YEAR
Congratulations to Connan McRae, winner of the 1300apprentice – Trainee of the Year in the category of Surveying and Spatial Information Services.

Surveying is a career that is experiencing a huge skills shortage and always looking for young people to learn, study and move through the ranks. Connan commenced his traineeship at the very young age of 15 and showed a maturity beyond his years. Surveying is a two-year traineeship which Connan successfully completed in just 12 months. Connan now has full time employment with his Host employer and working alongside his supervisors, is setting up a variety of complex projects around the country.
