The Dublin Institute of Technology is the largest Third Level Institute in Ireland. It caters for all levels of education from apprenticeship to PhD. It has recently adopted a faculty structure and this paper explores the emerging changes for construction apprenticeships and staff as the integration process within the Faculty of the Built Environment unfolds. A series of interlocking processes are identified in organisational and academic contexts. The benefits are explored in terms of the apprenticeships and craft staff, other staff and students and the increasing role which craft staff can play in a number of relevant national initiatives.
