Kevin Tobin

I have a clear understanding of the role of the World Skills programme. I am aware of the challenges facing its ever-evolving status.

I have completed in the finals of the National Apprenticeship competition as a young man and have been an assistant team leader to the Irish apprenticeship team that competed in both Abu Dhabi 2007 and Kazan (Russia) 2009

I have also studied innovation management, learning difficulties of apprentices, quality systems and project management as part

of my honours degree in training and education.

I am an enthusiastic individual skilled in productive teamwork. I have been successful in bringing many projects from inception to completion.

I am chairperson of the Glanmire Area Community Association.

My experience of achieving stakeholder focus is varied and comprehensive. These experiences include voluntary civic / social activities, to running my own business, from working as a manager in the private sector to teaching in the public sector .
