About us
FIT is an industry partnership working in collaboration with government and disadvantaged communities. FIT is committed to the socio-economic transformation of marginalised jobseekers and disadvantaged communities through innovative ICT training courses as a gateway to employment. It supports those jobseekers that are at risk of, or already experiencing long term unemployment and early school leavers from disadvantaged communities. • FIT programmes give access to those who have lower levels of formal educational qualifications and who can demonstrate an aptitude and interest in technology. FIT courses are developed in conjunction with industry to ensure that learners gain relevant soft skills combined with in-demand technology skills. Learners expand their skill sets and attain national and industry certifications leading to entry level jobs with real career prospects. FIT also supports progression to further and higher education as a step to employment. • FIT initially focused on meeting the employment needs of the ICT sector and then expanded its range of courses to include the needs of all sectors of ICT as well as emerging technology sectors such as wind energy, cloud, mobile apps and medical devices. In total over 48,500 job seekers have completed FIT skills development programmes to date, of which 35,000 have secured quality employment – FIT continues to change peoples’ lives.

Boost Your Visibility: Reposting on LinkedIn can showcase your engagement with industry-relevant topics, demonstrating that you’re active and informed. It also increases your own profile’s visibility in your network, leading to more connections and interactions. E 209 That Great Business Show with Conall Ó Móráin Peter Davitt, Fastrack into Information Technology (FIT) No matter age or qualifications, FIT can switch you to a tech career - it's a tech internship - so you 'earn while you learn'. If you've passed a Leaving Cert equivalent (and even that's flexible) and if you have the aptitude and attitude, then you could be in...on the road to a well paid career, either as employee, or self-employed. This could be your liberation. Have a listen. John Clancy, CEO Galvia AI, everything you ever wanted to know about machine learning for SMEs. Galvia can forecast what's going to happen to your business in the next six months. He wants to talk to companies with lots of data, but who don't can't see into the future (i.e. most or all?). He gives SME case studies that explains now Galvia can be so good for your business - and we ask the questions you want. Yes, it's affordable - it's a license model, paid by the month. This should make your business more profitable.
