EngTech on the Van

Dan Massey has been working for John Deere dealer JE Buckle Engineers based at Cromer, near Stevenage, Herts, since he left school five years ago. The son of a local farmer, Dan was offered an apprenticeship sponsored by John Deere which included attending Brooksby Agricultural College for three years on block release.

It was an arrangement which meant that while he was learning his craft he was still earning regular wages. Dan won a City and Guilds Gold Medal for excellence - recognition of the effort he had put into his studies at Brooksby. His medal was presented by the Duke of Edinburgh at a ceremony held at St James Palace, London. As you can see from the photographs, Dan also achieved his EngTech recognition and his Registrant status is proudly displayed on the door of his van.
