Teagasc is one of the main providers of further education in agriculture, food, horticulture, forestry and equine studies. The availability of courses is a matter for Teagasc and not the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine.
Teagasc advise that they issued an application form to the person in question for the part-time Green Cert programme on 7th Oct 2015 for a course commencing 6th November 2015. That person subsequently contacted Teagasc’s local office in Killarney in late January 2016 seeking a place on the part-time Green Cert programme. However, a place could not be offered as the course had commenced the previous November.
The applicant is advised to contact their local education officer for further advice on Green Cert participation.
