In order to secure an apprenticeship, you must first secure a contract with an employer. You must apply directly to an employer rather than to the training provider. Once you have found an employer to take you on as an apprentice, your employer must then register you as an apprentice with SOLAS. Your training will then be organised through the local ETB, Institute of Technology or Higher Education College. All apprenticeship courses are run subject to demand.

Creative

Creative people are drawn to careers and activities that enable them to take responsibility for the design, layout or sensory impact of something (visual, auditory etc). They may be atrracted to the traditional artistic pursuits such as painting, sculpture, singing, or music. Or they may show more interest in design activities, such as architecture, animation, or craft areas, such as pottery and ceramics.

Creative people use their personal understanding of people and the world they live in to guide their work. Creative people like to work in unstructured workplaces, enjoy taking risks and prefer a minimum of routine.

Such people may have an opportunistic frame of mind, and are drawn to commerce, trade and making deals. Some pursue sales and marketing occupations. Many will eventually end up owning their own business, or in management roles in larger organisations. They tend to be very goal-oriented and work best when focused on a target.
