The final event of the TGI College/TGI Apprenticeships year was held in early July when apprentices came together to mark the completion of their course. Sponsored by Guernsey Electricity, the evening was a celebration of the hard work, tenacity and achievement of our apprentices who were presented with their certificates by Lord Digby Jones.
Lord Jones also gave an inspiring keynote speech which drew on experiences from his own career pathway.
One apprentice from each vocational area was selected as the apprentice of the year from that particular area, and from that shortlist, TGI Apprentice of the Year 2026 was named. Award winners were as follows:
Carpentry and Joinery - Dylan Truffitt Electrical - Owen Carre Motor Vehicle - John Le Huray Culinary Skills - Gladys Mwangi Advanced Professional Cookery - Grace Miah Hairdressing - Lisa James Engineering - Jamie Ford Trowel Trades - Ewan Tanguy Plumbing - Louis Aller Construction Built Environment BTEC Level 3 - Bobby Tabel Construction Built Environment Level 4 HNC - Adam Tibbs Chartered Institute of Building Site Supervisory Studies - Zane Shepherd Office Administration - Lacey Roberts Adult Care - Caroline Njeri Early Years - Paula Grischek Functional Skills Mathematics - Max Rive Functional Skills English - Sharlise Alderton Award for Demonstrating Resilience - Lisa James Award for Outstanding Commitment - Gareth Foster
