Benefits of Cork Chamber Training
Member-led: Training courses are organised on the basis of requests from members - our training courses are therefore directly relevant to the needs of members across all industry sectors. So if you have one or one hundred employees, we can help you to provide targeted, effective training to help increase productivity, morale and competitiveness.
Quality-focused – Through a rigorous procurement process, we select only the top trainers who work with us to tailor our training to the needs of our members.
Cost Effective - Skillnets funding enables us to achieve significant efficiencies, which are passed on to our members in the form of substantially reduced training rates. Also by combining the training needs of our member companies, we are able to achieve significant cost efficiencies which we pass on to our members.
Locally Delivered: All training is provided in the Cork/Munster region.
In-company: We can organise training specifically tailored to the needs of your company (T&C apply).
Networking & Knowledge-sharing – The networks help promote the sharing of information, best practice and business contacts among member companies. Interacting with other member companies on training courses greatly increases your opportunity to learn about the latest developments, share best practice and broaden your network.
Places for JobSeekers: We have a limited number of FREE places on many of our open courses for people who are unemployed and looking to improve their employment prospects through up-skilling and networking with active member companies. Please feel free to mention this to anyone who might be interested in availing of this opportunity to up-skill, increase their employment prospects and network with potential employers.
