Kildare and Wicklow ETB Training Services

Taoiseach Simon Harris has today announced that the green light has been given for Kildare Wicklow Education and Training Board (KWETB) to proceed to the next stage in developing a College of The Future in Bray Institute of Further Education. Speaking in Bray today, the Taoiseach said: “This is an incredibly proud and exciting day for Wicklow. “This campus is now set to benefit from a major investment as it transforms itself into a state-of-the-art education and training campus which will deliver apprenticeship programmes, pre-apprenticeship courses, and establish a Centre of Excellence in Film and TV and Media. “The investment will mean that existing FET provision, which is dispersed across several leased buildings in the Bray and North Wicklow area, will instead be delivered in one single sustainable, developed building. “This is what we mean when we speak about equality across the tertiary sector – it shouldn’t matter where you’re from, or what path you choose in education. Everyone should have the same opportunity to reach their potential.” Dr. Deirdre Keyes, Chief Executive of Kildare and Wicklow ETB, said: “This project represents a major step in the advancement of Further Education and Training in Bray and North Wicklow. “The new campus will enable us to better serve our learners, provide a modern learning environment, and respond to regional and national skills needs.” Full Press Release here: https://lnkd.in/eaR53vPT #FETCollegeoftheFuture #KWETB

During the event, employees were presented with certificates recognising their commitment to fostering an inclusive and equitable workplace and services. This milestone underscores KWETB’s dedication to promoting a culture of respect, diversity and equality.
