Welcome to Logistics Associate Apprenticeship

WELCOME TO LAA

The Logistics Associate Apprenticeship provides academic Education and practical training across the Freight, Logistics, Shipping and Distribution industries. Apprentices enter a contact of 2 years duration, where they will work with an Employer and spent one day a week with Technological University Dublin (TU Dublin) for their academic studies. Completion of this programme will lead to a Level 6 Award on the National Framework of Qualifications.

For Apprentices, this programme is the perfect entry point into the Freight, Logistics, Shipping and Distribution industries, with broad exposure allowing persons to make a decision about their desired career direction upon completion.

For Employers, this initiative is an opportunity to recruit fresh and enthusiastic talent into your organisation, with the academic training provided to assist your businesses operations needs and lead to professionally qualified staff.

THE INDUSTRY IN IRELAND

The Freight, Logistics, Shipping and Distribution sector is a service provider industry, facilitating the effective movement of goods into and out of Ireland. As an Island nation, the Irish Logisticians are and have a need to be among the most skilled in the global economy.

The short reason for International trade is resource management; Countries around the World have different natural resources, different skilled industries and Countries trade with one another in order to profit on their surplus, thereby allowing them funding to import what resources and skills they do not have. With a population of 4.7 million people, Ireland’s Sea and Air Ports are vital gateways for Irish’s key exports (agricultural and pharmaceutical) and imports (that smartphone in your hand).
