Community Education provides informal and non-formal education for hard-to-reach adults. It is a process of learning and change that is rooted in the Community.
It aims to build the capacity of local communities to engage in diverse, dynamic and accessible learning in a non-threatening environment in order to effect change towards a more just and equal society.
Courses are funded by the LWETB from its Community Education budget.
Longford Leader Reporter Mary McFadden attended a computer course in Drumlish to experience the benefits of Community Education first-hand.
Funding will support almost 800 learners across the Longford and Westmeath area to access and participate in local community education.
These operational guidelines are for staff managing, administering and delivering community education programmes.

LWETB is co-funded by the Government of Ireland and the European Union
