IRD Duhallow is delighted to announce that it has been awarded funding through the Department of Justice and Equality supporting ESF PEIL Gender Equality – Women Returning to the Workforce.
This funding will provide a great opportunity to support women who may want to increase their self-confidence and assertiveness skills whilst also having the opportunity to take part in a series of training programmes, both accredited and non-accredited which will enhance women’s access to employment.
This training will be primarily targeted at women who are:
- engaged in home duties;
- newly unemployed not on the live register;
- may have left the workforce but are now preparing to return to employment;
- Women parenting alone;
- Women with disabilities;
- Carers;
- Newly located to the area;
- Migrant Women;
Importantly childcare may be subsidised where applicable for a person whilst undertaking the training programme. All training will be delivered in the James O’Keeffe Institute, Newmarket.
This programme finished in March 2020.
