Director of Apprenticeships and Vocational Education @Economy_NI Clement Athanasiou says that #NITraineeships matter because broader transferable skills matter to our economy’s long term success. The pace of change is moving rapidly and we must empower learners to succeed.

@Further_NI @mynwrc @Economy_NI Delighted to speak on behalf of employers at todays’s celebration of Traineeships in the long room in Stormont. Truly wonderful initiative by the Dept. for the Economy and the FE Colleges. Provide opportunities for our young people to gain on the job training and a qualification

@Economy_NI Gavin Killeen says from an employer point of view, it’s not about academic qualifications. We need to reform our education system to focus more on vocational qualifications - there is an abundance of opportunities that we need to make clear to young people. #NITraineeships

Celebrating 30 of our wonderful students tonight at Stormont. They have all successfully completed #traineeships and have taken the first step on their journey to work and further education. Proud of their hard work and dedication. #skills #FEforMe

111 Higher Education students at NWRC have now been awarded this prestigious scholarship since the initiative began five years ago, sharing a total fund value of over £230,000. The significant majority of students each receive a scholarship of £2,500.
