Jul22493 9. Jul22493 Established in 2017 for the purposes of producing designs of unmatched quality in the field of precision lasercutting components, all with a quick turnaround and short lead times, Murray Engineering & Installation has faced nothing short of continuous expansion over the past seven years. Today, this business offers a number of design, folding, and fabrication services in addition to the above, and enjoys a client base inclusive of such high-profile clients as Cargotec Ireland, Hyrdoscand, Hyster Yale, Activ8/SSE Airtricity, and Old Carrick Mill Distillery, to name a few. We catch up with Company Director Gerard Murray for more. With more than 20 years of experience at his disposal, it would be accurate to say that Gerard Murray is a true master when it comes to manufacturing and developing innovative design solutions, the same can also be said of his team, who possess almost seven decades of expertise in this space between them. As a result of this uniform excellence, whether a customer is in search of complex and unique designs, high-volume production elements, or anything in between, Murray Engineering & Installation (MEI) is the right choice for all of one’s design, CNC machine, laser-cutting, forming, fabrication/welding, drilling/cutting, and finishing needs. Regardless of the reasons for a customer utilising MEI’s services, they will be afforded the business’ famed person-centric approach from the off. Gerard elaborates further on this, stating, “we work closely with our customers from the beginning of each project, to ensure that all assemblies are consistently successful at the prototyping stage, before moving into production.” This approach has helped to further cement the company’s standing in the region and has resulted in numerous positive client testimonials that frequently reference the quality, skilled, knowledgeable, and cost-effective nature of this award-winning business. All work is carried out to the highest of standards across the board, and with the company in possession of the likes of an ISO 9001 certification for its manufacturing, the entirety of its structural steelwork meeting the EN1090-1 standard, and every member of its workforce boasting a BS EN ISO 96061:2017 welding certification, this is more than a claim, it is a promise. On the back of such accreditations, Gerard explains, “our certification processes ensure that all fabrication is consistent and to the highest standard”, something that starts and ends with his team. As Gerard tells us, “with over 65 years’ experience, our internal processes, systems, and employees are our top priority.” Such distinction starts at the top and works its way down the company ladder, with Gerard working tirelessly to continue to foster a vibrant business culture that revolves around the elements of employee growth and learning, providing an array of incredible opportunities for employees to develop both personally and professionally. By expanding their skills in a company that truly cares for their wellbeing, whether this be through training, feeding back on how the business can improve, or taking on increased responsibilities, members of this staffing team are afforded the opportunity to the live the company’s core values of delivering excellence in innovation and providing highquality products/services on a daily basis. This is something set only to continue as this team look to the future, and commenting on MEI’s plans for the coming months, Gerard speaks with an unmistakable sense of enthusiasm as he tells us about the company’s new solar ground mount systems, expert technology that has been designed in partnership with Ireland’s leading solar installation firm and then custom built by MEI’s team of engineers. Exploring this further, Gerard himself explains, “MEI’s ground mount system is capable of supporting small- and large-scale solar arrays and solar farms and has been designed for fast, efficient installation.” With a series of ground screws also coming soon, the future of MEI’s solar space sure is bright. Of course, each of the services that have been mentioned here are equally fantastic, but our personal favourite, and the one that has earned MEI this award, is its suite of lasercutting solutions. MEI’s 3kW fibre laser was already impressive when it was only capable of cutting up to 20mm with a maximum sheet size of 3m x 1.5m, but since 2023, the business has been able to cut up to 100mm thick thanks to a new state-of-the-art 10m x 2.5m laser. For all of the above, and more, we cannot recommend Murray Engineering & Installation enough, and we invite our readers to get in touch with the business should they have a project in mind.

EU Business News- Q2 2024 Though it may have officially debuted on the Irish market in 2007, the history of Slide Systems actually begins in 1995.

Mounted on top quality rolling systems and comprised of the best materials - depending on the client’s choice - Slide Systems’ wardrobes guarantee a stylish longevity that’s become the very face of the brand itself. It's a common belief within the world of storage that, instead of being able to have exactly what you want, you have to limit yourself depending on the space available to you. Say you have a section of your bedroom that’s simply impossible to fill – either due to height inconsistencies, or due to standard wardrobes simply not completing the area in a stylish, aesthetically appealing manner. It’s enough to make any person believe that they’ll never be able to transform that part of their room into something that’s going to be both functional and tasteful.

This versatility doesn’t end with installation potential – on the contrary, Slide Systems also boasts a wide range of materials for individuals to choose from. As an extremely important part of any build process, the materials of one’s wardrobe are what truly distinguish the good from the great.

Of course, having a functional and spacious wardrobe is only half of the storage journey.

In doing so, it presents clients with everything they could need to elevate their wardrobe to the next level – all in one place – making it the most comprehensive entity of its nature within the Irish storage trade.

Jul22546 EU Business News- Q2 2024 hough the world of English training is an incredibly competitive one across the vast majority of France, it’s all too common for collectives to replicate the school model in order to tutor its students. Focused on the acquisition of knowledge – as opposed to the application of tangible lessons – these entities essentially encourage learners to prioritise comprehending English, without honouring the importance of real-world usage. Emerald, however, turns this formula on its head. Where its competitors adhere to this rigid, school-like structure, Emerald has developed an approach that begins with the learning environment it has acquired. Set up much like a house, Emerald’s learning centre welcomes learners into a comfortable atmosphere that’s designed to elevate their self-confidence. Commonly onboarding individuals who are desperately looking to amplify their ideas, voices, networks, and international relationships, Emerald places great emphasis on the development of positive communication skills, and has crafted its courses to reflect this. These courses, though varied in nature, provide engaging insights into the English language, allowing individuals to learn and excel both individually and as a group. Though the aim may be straightforward, Emerald has gone the extra mile to ensure that learning English isn’t only engaging, but unapologetically enjoyable. By integrating various processes into its training courses, it has masterfully created personalised syllabi that capture the exciting essence of learning English. Out of Emerald’s various training courses, arguably the most popular is its individual training and specialised workshops. Standing as a manifestation of all that Emerald has learned throughout the years, these workshops are strictly concerned with delivering quality English training – training that has been specifically designed to satisfy the needs of a learner’s clients and trainees. Once initiated, Emerald’s English training workshops open with a English Language School of the Year - Occitania It’s a relatively concealed fact that, when it comes to learning English, many French people face a unanimous challenge – a lack of self confidence in even attempting to onboard the language. Looking to help its partner companies in overcoming this very roadblock is Emerald Language Learning (Emerald), whose comfortable learning environment encourages individuals to mobilise their knowledge orally and transform it into know how. Join us as we explore how Emerald has developed a methodology that prioritises its learners’ futures through effective communication in English. consultation phase that not only assesses the current capabilities of each individual, but also what their personalised needs may be. From here, Emerald works alongside its learners to set tangible goals that revolve around their objectives, be they ‘develop effective listening strategies’, ‘increase self-confidence to dare to speak English’, ‘enrich technical vocabulary related to the profession’, or ‘improve the use of verb tenses’. In short, Emerald sees to it that learners partake in a course that honours the demands of their professions, empowering them to develop strategies that facilitate mutual understanding, prepare them for integration into the international scene, and even help them to carry out meaningful and casual conversation with foreign colleagues. However, where most English training schools may prioritise the tutelage of skills that could otherwise be learned alone, Emerald instead works on skills that are impossible to develop by oneself. Placing additional focus on pronunciation, rhythm and intonation, spontaneity, voice projection, and paralinguistic aspects of communication, Emerald guarantees a comprehensive learning experience that has yet to be replicated to such a distinct level of quality. Yet, sometimes, total immersion is the best way to develop upon one’s language skills. Recognising this, Emerald has tirelessly worked to present learners with a chance to quickly progress through their English speaking journey. This opportunity is aptly known as Emerald’s Immersion Training in France. Situated in the Midi-Pyrenees region, learners are invited to partake in a week-long course that actively promotes communication, group learning, and immersion. With a rigorous timetable that makes room for enjoyable team building exercises and continuous learning, Emerald’s Immersion Training grants learners 50 hours of practising English, exploring the language through workshops and role plays, and reacting to English without using their mother tongue. Enhanced with cultural visits, company visits with commentary in English, and a multitude of other fun activities that encourage learners to think in English and work as a team, Emerald’s Immersion Training provides the perfect environment for enriching education. Now a staple among various French individuals who are hoping to elevate their English speaking skills, Emerald’s courses guarantee results, with engaging and encouraging programs simply elevating the overall experience. Throughout its courses, Emerald has demonstrated a considerable level of understanding when it comes to the needs of learners, and it’s for this very reason that it has been recognised on a national scale.

13. As expressed by Emerald itself – “Today, northern European countries are far more confident in communicating in English compared to the rest of the continent. This is mainly due to early age exposure and the approach to language learning. In France, children begin to learn English in their early teens, which is probably the worst moment as they are going through hormonal changes, and self-confidence is not at its best. The current teaching process is more adapted to ancient Latin or Greek, being mainly focused on the acquisition of knowledge rather than active communication.” As a result of this generalised approach to what is arguably an essential skill, Emerald sought to develop methods that, at their heart, explored English as a collaborative opportunity, as opposed to a skill that’s taught on a knowledgeonly level. Put simply, Emerald is a pioneer of teaching French people how to both learn English and apply it to their business’ communicative efforts. Be it conversations between colleagues, or interactions with international clients, the collective prides itself on encouraging people to step out of their boxes and empower themselves with the confidence to learn English. With such a passionate team leading it, and a drive to define itself as the most dependable entity within its field, Emerald has more than earned itself the title of English Language School of the Year – Occitania. To close, we’d like to share some words from Margaret Kent of Emerald Language Learning – “This award means a lot to us, and I would like to dedicate it to the team. Emerald would not be where we are today without the commitment and dedication of each one of you! So thank you guys!”
14. EU Business News- Q2 2024 Feb24637 Situated in Milton Keynes, Clearer Training is a family-run company whose two founders boast more than three decades of experience in both training roles and working in NHS and private clinics. Leveraging a unique approach to operation that is centred on blended learning, this team pride themselves on offering both e-learning and face-to-face lessons so that those with all learning preferences can benefit immensely from these sessions. Bolstered immeasurably by a well-earned reputation for excellence, Clearer Training aims to constantly improve the quality of its offerings while setting the gold standard. CoFounder Sue Danilewicz-Fergus is on hand for more. As an example of the tremendous quality embodied by Clearer Training, a recent senior clinician who has been in the space for more than a decade told founders Lee and Sue that he has never before experienced training of this quality, and that he had learned as much throughout his time with this team as he had in all of his previous years in the sector combined. This is just one example of the tremendous distinction of a business that leverages unrivalled experience and ongoing training to afford clients nothing short of the best that the industry has to offer. Utilising the services of a well-skilled team of professionals, Clearer Training makes certain to tailor its training services to the needs and requirements of each specific delegate, in turn, ensuring that they receive the best information and the practical experience necessary to thrive once training is over. With Lee and Sue both working in the industry alongside managing the business, they are acutely aware of the importance of practical experience in ensuring the right outcome is yielded when it comes time to putting this training into practice. Of course, in-depth theory is also key, and it is the meticulous blending of these two distinct areas that has proven to be the secret to Clearer Training’s sustained success. There are three courses available that specifically include ear care, the area for which the business is being celebrated with this award, and these are: ear care, micro-suction, and irrigation; ear care and irrigation; and finally, ear care, otoscopy, and ear swabbing. All three of these courses are CPD-accredited and include all of the theoretical and practical elements needed to certify one as an expert in using specific medical technology in such areas as earwax removal and diagnosing ear infections. Thus, regardless of the specific course chosen, clients of this business will leave a session confident in their abilities, often having practiced on both dummy heads and then real people to fortify the lessons that have been learnt. As Sue comments, “upcoming changes to regulation mean that there is a need to upskill in the clinical areas that we train in to meet these requirements.” She continues, “not all courses available in the market are able to address these refined skill needs as well as we can.” This is why courses delivered by Clearer Training have been the choice of thousands of industry professionals up and down the UK. Of course, it goes without saying that the business has been aided immeasurably by the UK’s status as a leader in numerous aspects of clinical skills training, while being located approximately 50 miles from London means that the team are only a short distance from the epicentre of one of the world’s most advanced medical sectors. While this location is incredibly convenient, Lee and Sue recognise that in this modern world, convenience is king. Thus, Sue explains, “we have recently launched our extensive new suite of online learning courses.” Across this range, she tells us, “there is something for everyone and our courses are easy to access and affordable to all.” This is not to mention the personalised element of these services, something perhaps best on display with any of its in-person courses able to be delivered in a bespoke manner to large groups at a location of their choosing, once more underpinning a relentless commitment to clients. Anybody seeking to know more about Clearer Training and its suite of training courses are invited to liaise with Lee and Sue directly, as they are always more than happy to answer any questions a prospective client may have regarding their offerings. Then, they can witness the collaboration, support, and lust to learn that define this team, making them a pioneering force in the field of medical training and a worthy recipient of this acclaim.
