Chris Noble was a well-loved, valued employee who was one of Precise Air’s longest serving technicians. Chris was highly regarded by his workmates and customers, and was passionate about teaching others. Sadly, he lost his life when he was the innocent victim of an explosion that took place in Rozelle in the early hours of September 4th last year.
To honour Chris’ memory, his colleagues gathered today to take part in the launch of the Chris Noble Apprentice Programme. The Programme will provide a selected number of outstanding trainees with the opportunity to take part in an enhanced apprenticeship programme.
Each year, apprentices in the Programme will be in the running for a number of awards to reward their dedication to learning, to customer service and to how they apply themselves to their work.
Precise Air is committed to developing the next generation of HVAC technicians and currently has 19 apprentices around the country, with plans to recruit more in the coming months. We are proud to launch this programme today in the memory of a technician who displayed excellence in his commitment to the trade, his customers and his company.
We’re excited to announce that our PAAP program has won the TAFE NSW Gili Industry Partnership Award! The Precise Air Aboriginal Pathways (PAAP) program is in it’s 3rd year and is a fantastic collaboration between Precise Air, TAFE NSW and NSW Police, providing educational and employment opportunities in the HVAC industry. It’s help us raise the overall participation rate of First Nations employees in Precise to almost 4%, and represents 19% of our apprentice cohort. Certainly something for us to celebrate in Reconciliation Week! Gili (pronounced ‘kill-ee’) is an Eora word meaning ‘to shine’. The Gili Awards celebrate the achievements of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students and TAFE NSW employees, as well as innovative programs that aim to empower Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and communities. Special thanks to the Precise Air team, TAFE NSW’s Sharon Taylor, Emma McDonald and Gary Jarret, and NSW Police Superintendent Scott Tanner APM.
