Description
Engineering Training Council is an employer-led body, governed by a council whose members are elected to ensure a broad representation of the engineering community.
The Council's vision is that the provision of engineering training and education in Northern Ireland is second to none.
The Council supports the engineering manufacture sector by:
* Identifying skill requirements and training needs of the industry
* Representing the industry's training interest to the Government
* Promoting initiatives such as National Vocational Qualifications (NVQs), Investors In People and Modern Apprenticeships.
* Promoting engineering as a career to young people by providing information and advice to schools, career advisors and directly to young people and their parents.
In order to provide a quality service for the engineering industry the Council liaises with Government, National bodies and various training providers, to reflect current and future training requirements within the sector.
