I posted details about this few years ago and I know a few Fabbers were able to take advantage of this Government initiative to gain further education

Springboard+ courses are free or heavily subsidised Higher Education courses that are available at Certificate, Degree and Masters level in areas of the economy where there are identified needs and skills shortages

There is a great mixture of courses all over the country in lot's of colleges. They are either part-time or full time and a mixture of online courses or attending online or blended course which is a mix of both

I did it myself back during Covid all online I only ever went to college for Grad day. I'm returning again in September to continue on. Was it tough of course but was great opportunity. It's free for those who are unemployed or in receipt of social welfare payments like Family Income Supplement. Employees pay 10% of course fees ie my next course is €5700 so I'll pay €570.

It's such a great initiative but it's not widely advertised so I thought I'd mention it here

Rosy posted about it on here 2 years ago, at a time when I was disillusioned with my job and needed a change. I applied after reading her post and recently completed a Higher Diploma (first class honours) which helped me secure my new job.

The online aspect can be challenging but it's been so worth the slog for me!

Thank you again Rosy ❤ ❤

You're amazing juggling family and study and getting Honours! Your ass needs a Distinction though as well

I can vouch for this scheme too and a lot of larger employers will have an education fund and will happily pay that 10%, most people don't know to just ask about it. I did a diploma in cybersecurity last year, it cost €4700 and i paid €0. Springboard paid 90% and my job paid the other 10%.

Fair dues for highlighting this again Rosy and best of luck with your next course.

Just one slight correction on the course fees and I hope you don't take it as criticism but a lot if not all Level 6 courses are free even if you are employed, I completed one in the past academic year.

Thank you for pointing that out I actually wasn't aware of that fact
