LEARNER TESTIMONIALS
I completed the Return to Learning with Art, Craft & Design course in Abbeyleix FETC to improve my IT skills. I was able to complete a Level 6 online course using those new skills. There was always a staff member available to answer questions and provide support and this was invaluable. I am now involved in a book collaboration project, using skills from other subjects for example Maths, Art and Design. As a more mature student I found that the confidence I now have, after completing the course, has opened new doors me.
