“Our company took part in the Greásán na Meán Skillnet Creative Thinking workshop to help us develop a creative thinking team. It was a wonderful course, and it will benefit us for a long time into the future. As a company that works primarily with young people, we also benefited from completing the Child Protection course. It was an invaluable course and a must for anyone in the sector. Attending the TV Summit was a wonderful opportunity to hear from sector leaders and to network with people that would otherwise be very difficult to have a ‘face to face’ with in a relaxed setting. Míle buíochas!”

“The Gréasán na Meán Skillnet is an asset to our business and the whole Irish language media industry. They have provided our staff with intensive work-based training at the highest level. Without their support, access to high quality trainers would have been beyond our reach. They have been an extremely useful resource that continually supports companies like ours in a constantly evolving industry. This allows us to develop a skilled workforce that is at the forefront of our business growth and development.”
