Skills for Security is delighted to welcome Apollo as a Platinum Sponsor, bringing together two organisations with a strong focus on developing people and supporting long-term careers within the fire and security industry.

For decades, Apollo has played an important role in the fire detection sector, recognised for their innovation, technical expertise and ongoing support for the industry. Alongside their product offering, Apollo already plays an active role in professional development through its own training, CPDs and educational resources. This partnership with Skills for Security builds on that commitment by further supporting the development of future engineers entering the fire and security industry.

The sponsorship reflects the growing importance of collaboration between manufacturers and training providers in helping the sector address skills shortages, create clearer career pathways, and ensure the next generation of professionals is equipped with the knowledge and confidence needed to succeed.

George Pickvance, Product & Marketing Director at Apollo, said:

“Supporting Skills for Security feels like a very natural partnership for Apollo. We see every day how important good training and clear career pathways are, and it’s great to support an organisation that’s making a real difference. We’re excited to be involved and to play our part in helping develop the next generation of fire and security professionals.”

David Scott, Managing Director at Skills for Security, added:

“We are extremely pleased to welcome Apollo as a Platinum Sponsor.

Partnerships with organisations like Apollo are incredibly valuable in helping us continue to support the development of skilled professionals across the fire and security sector. Their involvement reflects the growing importance of collaboration between manufacturers, employers and training providers in creating stronger career pathways and helping the industry address future skills demands.

By working together, we can continue giving learners greater exposure to the wider industry while supporting employers in developing a knowledgeable, competent workforce for the future.”

As a Platinum Sponsor, Apollo will support Skills for Security’s continued efforts to develop industry-ready engineers and promote rewarding careers that become possible with partnerships like this.
