Competenz has recently launched a new micro-credential to improve the level of digital literacy in the manufacturing sector.
"With an aging workforce it’s imperative we enable companies to keep their tradesmen and craftsmen,” says Jahn Vannisselroy, Competenz Sector Manager. “This micro-credential, which we can tailor to a specific company, is giving people the confidence to meet technology head-on.”
The qualification is fully funded under the government’s Targeted Training and Apprenticeship Fund (TTAF) for employers who enrol their staff before 31 December 2022.

"Hi there my name is Poe and I am a great pup looking for my forever home. I have not had the best start to life so would love a home that understands my quirks and is keen to help me through them. A home that has the patience and time to help me be the best companion I know I can be. I am super social so I could go a home with another playful dog that loves having a good tumble. I am not suited to a home with young children so would love a home with teenagers, who are keen to teach me new things and take me on adventures. Puppy school is something I am looking forward with my new family, learning things and making new friends. I do come with a medical waiver that my new home would need to be aware of. If you think you are the home for me please contact the canine team for more information."

The good news is there’s a lot you can do right now, like securing tall and heavy furniture, and getting a builder to look at your chimney. Everything you need to know is at EQC’s site.
Don’t wait for the next earthquake to shake you into action, get started now.

Ethos Energy strives to deliver the highest standard of advice and service whilst using the most efficient & reliable products.
We place the highest value on creating & maintaining long lasting relationships with our clients and our community for a more energy efficient future. Our mission is to support our community to grow and thrive.
We do this through our own work and by supporting programmes like Seedling Yoga for Schools (facebook.com/seedlingyoga) a locally designed social and emotional learning programme that uses the science of Yoga to support mentally, physically and emotionally healthy classrooms.
As we grow, our ability to help others grows.
What’s Your Ethos Towards Energy?
The cost of energy is one of the biggest costs for homes, schools and business. From our research, most buildings waste energy from using outdated, inefficient technology.
Heat Pumps and Ducted System.
Efficent Heating is a big issue for home owners. Heat Pumps Systems is one of the most efficient ways to heat your home and business.
In some cases, up to 500% more efficient.
We hate the idea of you waiting in the cold for your heat pump installation which is why we endeavour to keep your wait time to 10 working days or less. This is so important to us that if we can’t keep this promise we offer a 10% discount on your install.
Heat Energy Recovery.
Do you have unbalanced heat across your property? Crying windows? Stuffy offices or /classroom with no fresh air?
The best way to improve the air quality in a home, business or school without losing heat is to use a Balanced Pressure Heat Recovery Ventilation system.
Ethos energy is the leader in the local region with extensive knowledge and credentials in this new technology and have the right the tools at their disposal to design and install in all situations.
LED Lighting.
Did you know LED Lights pay for themselves over the course of their lifetime? Most commercial and school buildings have old, inefficient fluorescent fittings.
LED light fittings use up to a third less electricity, slashing energy costs.
Some Schools and commercial buildings can recoup the costs of switching to LED Lights within 6 to 24 months* from installation.
*This depends on the light use time and quantity of fittings that are replaced.

Spin Poi is inspired by traditional poi, but has been adapted to be a safe and effective exercise for seniors and the whole family. Spin Poi can be done sitting, standing or moving. So all ages and levels of ability are welcome. It's an excellent workout for the body and the brain as well as being lots of fun.
