Training in Donegal

DCCC contact all local and national training agencies and providers on a bi-annual basis to establish a comprehensive and up to date schedule of childcare related training opportunities. A comprehensive training opportunities schedule is compiled and sent to all Childcare Providers in January and December each year. This schedule highlights accredited training programmes taking place in different locations across the County or within the North West region. Throughout the year, as additional training opportunities arise, DCCC disseminates further information to all childcare stakeholders through the mediums of post, the DCCC website and the DCCC newsletter.

Listed below is a categorised Spring/Summer 2010 Training Schedule for Donegal.
