The award recognised the outstanding support and leadership provided by David as a mentor and role model, in addition to his guidance, knowledge, and respect for the defence industry trainees’ development and career progression.
Civmec also received a certificate of recognition for hosting trainees as part of the program, accepted by Learning and Development Liaison Suzy Blake, on behalf of the company.
The DIPP is a 12-month traineeship run by the Government of Western Australia and South Metropolitan TAFE WA, providing hands-on training and experience across various sectors of the defence industry.
Civmec has supported this initiative since 2021, offering trainees the opportunity to gain valuable, real-world experience at our facilities and helping to prepare them for diverse and rewarding career pathways within the defence sector.
