Winners will represent Ireland at WorldSkills London 2011
11th April, 2011; Dublin, Ireland: The 54th annual National Skills Competition ended on Friday afternoon with two awards’ ceremonies in Dublin and Cork. Hosted with Snickers Workwear for the 6th year in a row, the competition pitted apprentices from all over Ireland, head-to-head in 22 trades, in order to find the National Champions who are the most skilled at their chosen craft.
Held at the Dublin Institute of Technology (DIT) and Cork Institute of Technology (CIT) for the 54th consecutive year, the competition tested every aspect of the skill and workmanship of the apprentices over an intense period of three days.
We’ve been getting some great profile for Snickers Workwear and the National Skills Competition this week. As well as being in The Sunday Independent and The Sunday Business Post last weekend, they were on 98FM News and interviewed on Sunshine FM on Monday and featured on Henry McKean’s slot on Newstalk yesterday – MP3s to come soon.
TV3 News also covered the event, including David Macken, Managing Director of Snickers Workwear. Here’s the clip.
There’s more to come following the Award ceremony tomorrow too.
