Leading Irish firm Ardmac has become the latest company to secure the prestigious CPD Accredited Employer Standard by Engineers Ireland.

The business was recognised for its continuing professional development (CPD) strategy.

Headquartered in Dublin, and with offices in Cork, Craigavon, Manchester, Brussels and Switzerland, Ardmac is a leading global provider of cleanrooms, data centres, electric vehicle battery facilities, fit out and modular solutions. For 45 years, the company has provided high quality spaces to fast moving and evolving markets in Ireland, the UK and Europe.

Ardmac's design and engineering team have been central to company performance. In response to the growing demand from clients for turn-key solutions, the company has developed a multi-disciplinary design and engineering team with more than 25 engineers, six of whom hold Chartered Engineer status. The company also supports and nurtures future engineering talent through participation in Engineers Ireland's STEPS programme, by providing Transition Year work experience and third year placements, and through its graduate programme.
