Apprenticeship

What is an apprenticeship?

An apprenticeship is a programme of structured education and learning which formally combines and alternates learning in the workplace with learning in university or a further education setting. It is dual system, a blend of on-the-job employer-based learning and off-the-job learning.

Apprenticeship is an exciting and proven way for employers to develop talent for their company and industry. They are designed by industry-led groups, supporting growth and competitiveness. Apprentices earn while they learn and build valuable work-ready skills in a chosen occupation. Apprenticeships open up exciting and rewarding careers, with learning grounded in the practical experience of undertaking a real job.

Why Choose Apprenticeship?

  • LEARNING: Develop your skillset & expertise with real-world learning

    For apprentices, learning surveying steps out of the classroom and into the real world. Get hands-on, real-world experience of your career in surveying.

  • FINANCIAL GAIN: Earn while you learn

    Stay ahead of the curve by earning money while you attain your degree.

  • COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE: Get ahead with work experience

    Gain work experience by working while you study. By working as you learn, you will have valuable experience and industry knowledge right when you graduate!

  • JOB OPPORTUNITIES: Secure your job faster

    Apprentices gain a great advantage in securing a job after graduation. Graduates often continue with their apprenticeship company after graduation or benefit from having both a degree and experience when applying for jobs!

  • SCSI ACCREDITATION: Achieve professional recognition

    Set yourself up for success by getting an SCSI accredited degree which will enable you to apply for membership after graduation. By becoming a Chartered Member of the SCSI and RICS, you not only gain elite professional standing in Ireland but also internationally, opening doors to new opportunities.
