Loughshore Centre Continues Partnership With CITB NI

Loughshore Educational Resource Centre has continued its partnership with CITB NI in the 2023-24 academic year.

Encouraged by the success of previous years, the school increased its utilisation of CITB NI's training facility from one day to two days.

This expansion will accommodate a growing number of trainees specialising in construction trades which further improves the educational outcomes for students at Loughshore Educational Resource Centre.


In the 2021-22 academic year, CITB NI played a central role in supporting the Loughshore Educational Resource Centre. The school turned to CITB NI for assistance after facing challenges in securing a suitable training facility. Using CITB NI's training facilities, the students engaged in practical training sessions in areas such as brickwork, landscaping and paving.

This collaboration continued to have a positive impact as by 2022-23 eight young individuals successfully attained Level 2 or Level 1 qualifications through the training programs provided.
