We have Baldoyle Education Training Centre attending and you can speak with them about apprenticeships also.
Please note that apprenticeships are available in so many different areas: Estate Agents, Cybersecurity, Finance, computing, as well as the traditional craft apprenticeships, so it is definitely worth speaking with the professionals about these opportunities.
