FAQs

A Skillnet training network is a group of private sector companies, based in Ireland, who operate in the same sector/region. These companies come together to carry out training-related activities that may not be possible on their own. The training networks are funded by Skillnet to deliver grant aided training and the companies also contribute matching funding. Skillnet training networks also offer free places on some of their courses to unemployed people.
