Upcoming courses

CCR are hosting several courses over the next two months.

We will be delivering a 10-week QQI (FETAC) Level 4 training programme in Radio Production and Presentation Skills.

Starting the last week in October, training will take place on Wednesdays (10am to 3pm). Admission is €250 p/p. However, if you are currently unemployed and in receipt of a social welfare payment, we can assist you in applying for a grant to cover the full registration cost of the course.

The second course will be on the topic of fundraising and will be hosted by Cleo De Vito. It will take place on a Saturday (either Nov. 18th or 25th, tbc) for circa 6 hours, from 10am to 4pm. This course is free, open to all members, and no prior experience is necessary.

If you’re interested in either course, please get in touch with the office on 094 9373737 or email admin@ccr946.ie.
