Farrans supports students during National Apprenticeship Week

7.02.2025

This week marks National Apprenticeship Week, running from February 10th to 16th, and our team has already been busy attending events across the UK to encourage the next generation of talent to consider a career in construction and civil engineering.

We recently took part in the CITB NI’s #NIAW2024 “Build your Career’ – Apprenticeships: Getting it Right for You event at W5 Belfast, where more than 167 pupils in years 12 to 14 came from schools across Northern Ireland including:

  • Blessed Trinity College, Belfast,
  • Abbey Community College
  • Bangor Academy
  • St Paul’s High School Bessbrook,
  • St Patrick’s College, Banbridge,
  • Mercy College, Belfast
  • St Patrick’s College, Dungannon

The event provided an excellent chance for students to explore the various career opportunities within the construction industry.

Our team in Scotland participated in a Careers Fair at Central Gurdwara in Glasgow and held classes at Hyndland Secondary School, focusing on pathways into construction.

At Farrans, we want to provide everyone with an opportunity to work in construction and civil engineering. We also know that we don’t all learn in the same way.

We offer Higher Level Apprenticeships at Level-5, Foundation Degree / Level-6, Degree / & Level-7 Masters in Construction Management, Civil Engineering & Quantity Surveying.

We have apprenticeship opportunities in many other roles including planning, buying, bid writing and business administration among others.
