Government funded modules available for CPD opportunities

Posted on 3 Dec 2020

Have you thought about upskilling to become a better practitioner or upskilling to strengthen your CV, but the financial and time pressures were too much of a barrier?

The Open Training College has a possible solution. The OTC is offering 6-week online Continuing Professional Development courses, FREE of CHARGE, starting in January.

Courses that can cost €395- €1,100 are now free!  *

Yes, our students can study one or two short courses in January and, because of the recent government stimulus package, no tuition fees will apply for most of them. Check out the five HEA Modular course choices below.

These courses will upskill students with practical and immediate solutions and will also allow students to experience an accredited short course as an introduction to a longer accredited course, without the usual financial commitment. Go on, take the quick plunge and see if any of these courses are suitable!
