Irish Times Group to wind down its professional training business

Irish Times Training will continue to service current courses

Irish Times training was established in 1974 and provided a variety of training and education courses.

The Irish Times Group is to wind down its professional training unit this year citing intense competition and changing customer behaviours which have made trading in recent years "challenging".

Management at Irish Time Training, which was based at the media company's headquarters on Tara Street, said the company was focused on fulfilling its commitments to existing customers and would continue to service current courses.
