Earn While You Learn!
Northside Partnership is delighted to announce our 2024 Apprenticeship Fair, which takes place
There will be 30-minute slots and numbers are limited to 60 per session.Tickets are free and available on Eventbrite.
Apprenticeships allow participants to earn while they learn, without student loans or fees – and they are proving an increasingly popular way to continue in education without going to college.
Structured training programmes allow apprentices work towards a qualification and gain the skills and knowledge needed to succeed. Apprenticeship schemes provide hands-on training and experience and help apprentices become confident in the work environment.
“The 2023 Apprenticeship Fair was a huge success,” ccording to Paul Hayes, Education Coordinator with Northside Partnership. “Most of the time slots were fully booked. Visitors were delighted with the information they received. It was a fantastic recruitment opportunity for employers and education providers to meet potential apprentices face to face. There are many different routes that people can take to continue in, or return to Employment and Training. Northside Partnership’s Apprenticeship Fair 2024 gives them a great taste of what’s available.”
There are now hundreds of types of apprenticeships schemes from fields as diverse as construction to accountancy and mechanics to business.
A wide range of employers and education providers will attend the fair across all fields of employment, including hairdressing, horticulture, technology, catering, engineering, healthcare, finance and hospitality. Employers and training providers will highlight a vast array of programmes available in the locality.
