Homemakers fill 25% of places on reskilling schemes
The eligibility for more than 200 Springboard+ courses was broadened this year to allow applications from people on homemaking duties who want to return to the workforce.
Since 2011, at a cost of over €100m, around 28,000 people have been funded to take part in courses in a range of sectors where skills shortages have been flagged to the Government.
