On Thursday 16 May, the Grangegorman Development Agency and the Grangegorman Labour and Learning Forum, are hosting an apprenticeship information morning for anyone interested in hearing more about taking on a placement. The event will take place in Rathdown House, Grangegorman and runs from 9am-12pm.
Apprenticeship Information Morning
The event aims to bring people interested in working in construction together with contractors on the Grangegorman Development who are eager to hire apprenticeships. It also seeks to raise awareness of apprenticeship opportunities and the various pathways to apprenticeships. The morning will be informal, and all are welcome whether they are employed, unemployed, studying or working in the home.
In addition to information about apprenticeships, there will be advice and support on CVs/job applications/interviews, social welfare information, details of the TU Dublin free Access to Apprenticeship programme, and information about the construction sector in general, plus complimentary refreshments.
