100 Jobs Campaign Beats Target

17th September 2013

A BELFAST Telegraph campaign to encourage firms to take on apprentices has reached its target.

100 jobs in 100 days ran from May 29 to September 5, and in that time secured pledges from 26 companies to take on 108 apprentices.

Employment Minister Dr Stephen Farry, whose department has responsibility for apprenticeships, congratulated the newspaper on surpassing its target.  

“The campaign has done much to highlight the true value of our apprentices and their importance to our businesses,” he said.
