Welcome to a rain-soaked July edition of the Corporatetraining.ie newsletter - the monthly e-bulletin for HR managers and training professionals in Ireland.
In the News this month is a new qualification that is designed specifically for managers in SMEs. The course is highly flexible, eligible for FAS funding, and available across the country. The latest report by the EGFSN reiterates the vitality of the ICT sector in Ireland, but also warns of further skills shortages down the line - see how they propose the government and industry overcomes these challenges.
Our third and final news story involves the British government's ambitious plan to provide every employee with the legal right to request time for training. Would this work in Ireland? Are you in favour of such a move here? Let us know by taking part in our latest Poll. The result is sure to make interesting reading in our next newsletter...
The Training Article this month relates to Communications Training; how poor communication can wreak havoc in any organisation and how effective training can turn the situation around.
And finally, a little fun to round things off. This months's Training Trip is a Training Game called 5 Ideas, which will help develop both team cooperation and creative thinking in your organisation.
Don't forget about Learning Ireland's upcoming adult education expo, Which Course Dublin Expo 2008, taking place this September. It will feature hundreds of lifelong learning and upskilling opportunities. Click here for full details an to get a free visitor's pass.
Until next time! |
