The @aontas team recently visited @TipperaryETB to deliver an advocacy workshop to students focused on "Making Changes" Students identified a lack of transport & access to work experience as 2 key issues to work on to make #AdultLearning more accessible➡️aontas.com/learner-voice/…

@ETBIreland @TipperaryETB Thanks for a great conference @ETBIreland and nice surprise. If my video is good it’s only because of the amazing #SkillsForLife students at @NLN Hollyhill #ETBAnthem winners. Fantastic performance.

Congratulations @Colincummins! Your video of the #ETBAnthem has been chosen as the best video of the conference! We will be in touch with your prize shorty Colin! What do you think of our ETB Anthem, Find Your People? @TipperaryETB #FutureETB #ETBStrongerTogether

All we can say is wow!! @CorkETB 👏👏👏

@ETBI @CorkETB outrageously talented collaboration on stage tonight. Fantastic performance to round out the #FutureETB Conference. Thanks you for a great @ETBIreland conference. Well done #ETBAnthem winners. NLN Cork

Delighted to see Cora Foley @foleychick my colleague and friend from my time in @lcetb. Great advocate for young people with a reminder that in good #youthwork we need to meet the learners where they are at and it’s ok to have fun. “We take you where you are at”. #FutureETB

Ukrainian LC student from Kerry ETB outlines his very positive experience in education since he fled from the war in Ukraine and enrolled in school, stating he was welcomed by Kerry ETB. #FutureETB @ETBIreland @wcfe @WWETBofficial @SOLASFET @SimonHarrisTD

@JamesLeonard85 of the @2NorriesPodcast brilliantly describes his experience of school and the damage we can do as educators while also highlighting the power of education once given opportunity. Thanks James!#FutureETB @ETBIreland @TipperaryETB

John Lonergan: “where would we be without our teachers!” - reflecting on the importance of the connection between teacher and the student👏 “teachers need to be present every minute of every day” big ask for us all #futureETB @etbi @TipperaryETB #FET

Love John Lonergan, the Governor! Strong positive message. Be proud of what we have achieved in #ETBs in Ireland. “Most young people…have that opportunity “ to benefit from #education. Fundamental role of education is to “encourage, encourage, encourage!! That’s #FutureETB

#FutureETB we can learn so much from Stephanie Thompson’s #Youthreach to Phd journey through #FET. We need to make connections that support learners through the wide range of transitions they will experience. #PathwaysByDesign @ETBIreland @TipperaryETB

Thought provoking input from Eileen Oliver-Free @LinkedIn for ETBs as we provide for #FutureSkillsAndInnovation “how greedy we can be looking for idea candidates”-need to be diverse in our thinking. Skills will change 50% in next two years. #FutureETB @TipperaryETB @ETBIreland

Interesting input on #FutureSkilksandInnovation panel from Kristine Langenbucher @OECD and @andrewbrownlee7. Impact of AI to be felt most by highly skilled workers. Intermediate skills needs requirement will be significant and #FutureETB #FET is flexible and can respond.

In the panel discussion on inclusion Joanne advises to “Listen to the person at the heart of the problem” #FutureETB @ETBIreland @WWETBofficial @wcfe @SOLASFET @SimonHarrisTD

Privileged to be here to listen to @JoanneOR_Ox here in Cork at #futureetb. Powerful reflection on inclusive education and power of difference. Thank you Joanne and @ETBIreland for a brilliant Keynote!! #nolimbsnolimits @TipperaryETB

@CorkETB CE and great host @DenisLeamy with ETBI General secretary @PaddyLavelle5 getting ready for Day 2 #FutureETB

Enjoyed the vox pop video on the #futureetb. Great to hear such well informed voices of our young people in our #etb schools. @ETBIreland would have been nice to have had #FET learners represented for the full spectrum of ETB landscape.

Thank you Minister @NiallCollinsTD for recognising @TipperaryETB learner Liam Cleere on the publication of his book last week #futureetb. An inspiring story of the potential and power of #fet tipperarylive.ie/news/home/1296…

So proud of @TipperaryETB's contribution and partnership with this amazing college @MICThurles. Great things happen when we work together @finnomurchu @TemplemoreCFE

Glad to be here despite #stormAgnes for the opening address by Minister @NiallCollinsTD at the #futureetb #etbi Annual Conference with my @TipperaryETB colleagues. Positive winds of change blowing.

@ETBIreland @TipperaryETB #futureETB looking forward to this!!
