The course includes work placement which draws on participant’s life experience and skills. The overall aim of the programme is to provide you with the opportunity to gain the skills necessary to progress to employment or further education. While a large portion of the learners have progressed to employment, several learners have progressed on to further education. All our classes are delivered face to face in our training centre in Dublin 2 where learners have access to all supports, materials and IT equipment required to successfully complete the programme.
