Do you find the complex mechanisms of a bicycle fascinating? If so, GRETB has an exciting opportunity for you. Starting on April 22, An Mheitheal Rothar, in collaboration with GRETB, is offering a free 26-week training course in bicycle mechanics.
Located at Unit 2 Adley Park, Tuam Road, Galway, H91 VX7V, this comprehensive programme will equip participants with the knowledge and skills needed to excel in the field of bicycle maintenance and repair.
For those who like working with their hands, much of the learning on this course will be practical; however, the programme will also include written and practical assessments. During the course, you will also be supported to complete work placements where you can practise and improve your bike repair skills in bike shops/workshops. This element of the course helps to further enhance your skills and employability and allows you to experience what it is like to work in the bike industry.
One of the key highlights of this programme is its emphasis on equal opportunities and diversity. An Mheitheal Rothar actively encourages and supports individuals from all backgrounds to pursue careers in bicycle mechanics, fostering an inclusive learning environment where everyone can thrive.
Upon completion of the course, participants will receive City & Guilds certification. Whether your goal is to repair your own bike at home or to pursue employment in the cycling industry, this programme will provide you with the necessary skills and qualifications to succeed.
For those eager to seize this chance, simply drop into the centre at An Mheitheal Rothar, Unit 2 Adley Park, Tuam Road, Galway, H91 VX7V.
