1 Adult Education Courses 2007/2008 Session Introduction

County Dublin Vocational Education Committee is one of the largest of the thirty-three Vocational Education Committees in the Country. The Committee’s education remit extends from Balbriggan in the north of the county to Lucan in the west, to Shankill in the south and encompasses such areas of high density population as Swords, Lucan, Blanchardstown, Tallaght and Clondalkin. It is unique in that it straddles the entirety of both and Counties and all of Dun Laoghaire/Rathdown County with the exception of the old borough of Dun Laoghaire.

The Committee provides a wide range of education services in these areas. This service ranges from providing full-time education in twenty-two Post Primary schools, eight Youthreach Centres and four Traveller Education Centres, to part-time provision for adults in numerous schools and community based centres.

This composite brochure provides an overall guide to adult education classes and courses offered by Co. Dublin V.E.C.’s Adult and Community Education Service. It provides information on a wide range of programmes for adults who wish to return to either full-time or part-time education. The information provided is set out on a regional basis to facilitate the public to identify specific courses, which may be provided in their particular community or locality.

A distinctive feature of the County Dublin Adult Education Service is its capacity to respond and to identify education needs in a particular area. Consequently any brochure of this kind is an overview of the classes and courses on offer at the time of its compilation.

As the service is geared to respond to local needs, changes may occur and new classes provided in response to these needs. In addition, all the classes and courses are offered subject to a minimum number of applications. Where there is insufficient interest in a particular course, the offer to provide the course may be withdrawn.

Finally, Co. Dublin V.E.C. and its Officers are pleased to receive any suggestions from the public for improvements in the service, which is currently provided.
