Tipperary Education and Training Board is allocated almost €121,000 under today’s announcement of €5M in funding for Community Education.
The Government has also launched a new Community Education Framework to aid the delivery of community projects across Ireland. The funding will support almost 50,000 educationally disadvantaged learners to access and participate in community education.
Minister Patrick O’Donovan says Community Education includes both formal and informal learning and offers a wide range of outcomes for learners which include skills development, confidence building, greater community involvement, social justice outcomes and progression to other types of Further Education and Training provision.
