Our 600m² state-of-the-art training facility is at our HQ in Ireland and was designed in consultation with the education authorities. The classroom is connected to our offices and this encourages easy communication between management and apprentices. Why did you set up the training academy? Part of the Errigal vision is to grow the business and establish ourselves as a tier one contractor and it was clear to us at an early stage that training young people to a professional level on the tools was probably the most important element to sustain our growth. We believe that those FISmember, Errigal Contracts Limited, have set up their own apprenticeship training academy and are approved to deliver qualifications by City and Guilds. We spoke to DamienTreanor , co-owner and Director, who said that their training academy has become a significant part of everyday life at the office.
