A YOUNG tiling apprentice from Alfredton has been named as one of the region\u2019s best by Master Builders Victoria.<\/p>\n
Twenty-four-year-old Kale Faull, who works at Tidy Tiling, has received the Chairperson\u2019s Ballarat Regional Apprentice of the Year award after being nominated by the Building Skills Centre.<\/p>\n
Mr Faull was judged on his overall preparation and presentation, work experience, knowledge and career plans, and attitude on and about the job.<\/p>\n
\u201cI was lucky enough to get some exposure to tiling by doing some work with my father, so when the opportunity came up to do an apprenticeship\u2026 I jumped at it,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
\u201cI like the way you spend time on a project and see the final outcome on display, so I\u2019d recommend getting a trade to anyone in the area who\u2019s looking for a career path.\u201d<\/p>\n
Chair of the Ballarat section of Master Builders Victoria, David Rowe, visited Mr Faull at Tidy Tiling in Alfredton last Friday to present him with his award.<\/p>\n
\u201cCongratulations to\u2026 Kale [for his] win,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe panel of judges commented on how strong the field of nominees were this year, so that\u2019s a terrific sign that the future of the building and construction industry in Ballarat and surrounding regions is in good hands.\u201d<\/p>\n
