‘A first for the Drywall Industry in the UK and Ireland’

In conjunction with South West College, Enniskillen we commenced our 2 year Drywall apprenticeship in October. We now have 34 apprentices in full time employment while they complete their training with Errigal Contracts. In 2017, a further 64 will start their apprenticeship. “This apprenticeship is particularly attractive for prospective students because of the partnership wi th Err igal Cont racts. Er ri gal i s a l ocal company with a global reach, and apprentices can expect to work on major projects across a wide range of locations.” - Ciaran McManus , South West College, Enniskillen.
