Tia Gutteridge: ATEC Awards Finalist

The Ai Group Apprentice & Trainee Centre is incredibly proud of Tia Gutteridge, who was recently recognised as a finalist at the ATEC Awards in Adelaide. Tia was selected as a finalist in the 3rd stage Mechanical Engineering apprentice of the year category.

While Tia didn’t take home the top prize, being named as a finalist is an outstanding achievement and a testament to her hard work throughout her apprenticeship. Tia was also recognised as our Apprentice of the month back in June 2023, and featured in another article of ours on her dedication to safety in the workplace.

Tia, hosted by Global Pumps Australia in Adelaide, has shown outstanding dedication to her trade, and this recognition highlights the respect and admiration she has earned from those around her. Her host employer was delighted with her achievement, acknowledging the high esteem in which she is held in the workplace.

The night wasn’t without its wins—Tia had a stroke of luck, taking home the $500 door prize, which was a voucher from making it a memorable evening after all.

We congratulate Tia on this well-earned recognition and look forward to seeing her continued success throughout her career.
