Exhibition puts focus on return to education

From stargazing and shiatsu to bridges towards college, a range of courses on offer around Cork this autumn can all be found under one roof next week.

For more than 30 years, the Cork Adult Education and& Training Exhibition has been informing the public of what is available, but this year there is a key focus among participants on opportunities for retraining, upskilling, and changing careers.

There remains, however, a strong emphasis on leisure pursuits. Cork Astronomy Club, Bishopstown Orienteering Club, and Cork Bridge Club will have stands alongside colleges and training agencies during the exhibition at City Hall from Tuesday to Thursday next week.
