Skills for Life is a full-time training course for school leavers based at Tralee Institute of Technology. The course is run over three years including a transition year if needed.
The aim of the programme is to make each student as independent as possible and ready to make important life choices.
Each participant follows their own individualised plan and is fully supported by staff to achieve their full potential. This is delivered through education, life skills training and work experience.
