Galway Roscommon Education and Training Board (GRETB)

School leavers can find PLC courses at the GRETB.

GRETB day courses are designed to provide early school leavers to get the proper training and experience that will help them aspire in their education and career further in life.

Courses are accredited by National and Internationally recognised Accreditation Bodies, such as, Quality and Qualifications (QQI), City & Guilds, Microsoft and Cisco. Most courses have a strong work placement element. The duration of training programmes can vary from seven to fifty weeks. Training is generally delivered on a full-time basis from Monday to Thursday 8.30am to 3.45pm and Friday 8.30am to 12.45pm.

In addition, GRETB courses are free of charge to unemployed individuals and participants may be entitled to a training, travel or childcare allowance. (Programmes are run subject to demand and dates may change).
