What is an Apprenticeship?
An apprenticeship is a programme of structured education and training which formally combines and alternates learning in the workplace with learning in an education or training centre.
It is a combination of on the job employer based training and off the job training in an education setting

These apprenticeships are a dual system incorporating a blended combination of on-the-job employer-based training and off-the-job training in an education or training centre consisting of 7 Phases in a 4-year structure. Four phases i.e. Phases 1, 3,5 & 7 are completed on-the-job with the employer. Phase 2 is completed in an Education & Training Board (ETB) Training Centre and Phase 4 and 6 are completed in a Technological University (TU). GRETB deliver some of the off-the-job Phase 2 apprenticeships in our training centre in Galway.
