New online portal for people seeking to upskill or retrain

Minister Hildegarde Naughton encourages the unemployed, employees, and employers in Galway to make use of The Right Course

Unemployed, employees, and employers in Galway are set to benefit from a new online portal for people seeking to upskill or retrain.

The portal, www.gov.ie/therightcourse, outlines the further education and training places, courses in higher education on offer, and information for those on a social welfare payment.

Fine Gael Galway West TD, and Minister of State, Hildegarde Naughton said the portal will “bring all this information together and make returning to education much more straightforward”.

“I know that returning to education, or starting third level later in life, can be a daunting experience,” she said. “At present, there are multiple sources of information and they can appear confusing at times.”

Dep Naughton also encouraged business owners to explore the range of upskilling options available from Skillnet Ireland, including enterprise-led business support, targeted upskilling opportunities for employees in businesses, free online training programmes, and virtual job placements.
