SKILL Programme

Over 700 staff from 27 DFI Member Organisations are currently undergoing SKILL Programme Training in VECs throughout the country. SKILL stands for Securing Knowledge Intra Lifelong Learning; it is aimed at increasing the education, training and development of support staff and their supervisors in the Irish health and personal social services. This FETAC accredited Training (levels 5 and 6) is provided through a programme of blended learning, where experience gained in the work environment is combined with attendance in a learning environment during the modules and home study. Full information on the SKILL Programme is available from the website www.skillprogramme.ie.
