The apprenticeship programs will start in August 2023.
In Tuesday’s announcement, Dublin Aerospace’s CEO, William Flaherty, said,
“We are delighted to be in a position where our apprenticeship program is highly sought-after by young men and women from all around Ireland. The combined approach of classroom and hands-on training is what makes this program such a success. We are also very pleased to be expanding our current program with the introduction of our Toolmaking Apprenticeship. To date, we have welcomed over 150 apprenticeships through our doors, who have helped shape Dublin Aerospace’s culture as it stands today, playing a key part in our success. We look forward to welcoming this year’s apprentices to our great team here at Dublin Aerospace.”
For 2023, Dublin Aerospace will welcome 25 new apprentices, who will experience a blended approach of classroom and hands-on learning.
