The Construction Employers Federation (CEF) has said that NI Apprenticeship Week is an opportunity to demonstrate talent and showcase opportunities in the Construction industry.

Led by the Department for the Economy, Apprenticeship Week runs from 5 to 9 February 2024.

CEF noted that by using social media content, conducting video interviews, participating, or hosting events are all effective ways to engage potential prospects and help address the widespread skills gaps in the NI Construction Industry.

Moira Doherty, Head of Skills and Education at DfE, said: "Employed from the start, you earn while you learn, working alongside experienced staff as well as studying at a local college, university or private training provider. And for employers, apprenticeships offer access to fresh talent as apprentices gain the real-world skills and qualifications needed to help your business grow. I encourage anyone with an interest in an apprenticeship to check out the events planned for NI Apprenticeship Week and get involved to find out more."
