CBE+ - Capabilities Beyond Engineering

As part of National Apprenticeship Week, we’re highlighting the journey of Dylan Davenport and the opportunities that apprenticeships at Capabilities Beyond Engineering can provide.

Dylan began at CBE+ as a CNC Machining Apprentice after realising that classroom-based learning wasn’t the right fit for him. He moved into the Assembly team, completing his Level 3 in Mechanical Manufacture and an HNC, gaining both hands-on experience and managerial knowledge along the way.

Today, Dylan runs the Assembly department, coordinating his team, overseeing processes, and ensuring quality standards are met. He is the first point of contact for customers and plays a vital role in keeping projects on track.

His experience demonstrates how CBE+ apprenticeships equip individuals with the skills, responsibility and confidence to progress into leadership roles within the business.

As part of National Apprenticeship Week, we’re sharing perspectives from former apprentices at Capabilities Beyond Engineering.

Starting a career through an apprenticeship offers the chance to gain practical, on-the-job experience alongside formal learning. For many, working within an SME environment provides early responsibility, real exposure to the industry, and a strong foundation to build upon.

Today, we’re highlighting one former apprentice’s experience of beginning their career in marketing and how that foundation supported their progression.
