Craig Bright – National Certificate in Automative Engineering student, with his certificate after winning the Australasian Holden Tech Guild Grand Final in Melbourne.
National Certificate in Automotive Electrical Engineering student, Craig Bright, recently triumphed at the Australasian Holden Tech Guild Grand Final held in Melbourne in May, which saw thousands of Holden technicians competing in a series of hands-on tasks and assessments.
Craig said the competition was unlike anything he’d experienced before.
“It was a real challenge to go up against technicians from throughout Australia and New Zealand. The final itself was an arduous and tense experience, it was extremely close and I didn’t know if I had won until my name was read out.” said Craig.
Duncan Wales – Automotive Industry Liaison in our School of Trades and Services, said Craig’s win was a great achievement.
As well as studying at Unitec, Craig works as the workshop foreman and technician at West City Holden. John Blewett, West City Holden’s dealer principal, said Craig’s commitment to the customer is second to none and his attention to detail is faultless.
Craig won a cash prize and trophy.
WOW!!!! Congratulations.
I hope someone in Unitec Communication makes sure this great achievement gets some publicity outside of Unitec.
Thank you for your message Antoinette, and yes, Marketing and Communications are both across this. A media release is going out next week and Marketing will then put it on the Unitec website and Facebook page.
