3 great courses for non-native English speakers to maximise their potential
The construction industry is one of the most international industries in Ireland. The construction industry accounts for one-fifth of all enterprises in Ireland, making Ireland’s construction industry the largest percentage share of active enterprises in the EU. With a large proportion of the workforce coming from Eastern Europe, Asia and many countries around the world, in order to maximise your employability in the construction industry, you must have a good level of English proficiency. At BSS, we want our employees to maximise their potential, so we’ve decided to list 3 different courses to help you learn English.
