If you haven't yet visited one of the "Taking Care of Business" events around the country, register now for the next one in Drogheda on Thursday 8th October 2015. It's your chance to meet informally with 30 State bodies to see how they can support your business.

Skillnets will be joining representatives from 30 State Offices and Agencies at Information Stands throughout the event to give you information and advice on a range of services that span your business needs and activities. We will have a member of the ManagementWorks team available at the event to discuss the full suite of subsidised management development programmes on offer through the ManagementWorks initiative and we can direct you to over 60 Skillnets-funded training networks that can meet your wider training needs.
