GRETB Open Day - Further Education and Training (FET) is back for its second year, giving people the opportunity to learn more about the wide range of education, training and upskilling options available across Galway and Roscommon. Following the success of last year’s event, the Open Day has expanded for 2027 and will take place on two dates:
📍Salthill Hotel, Galway (H91 DD4V) – Tuesday, 23rd February 2027
📍Abbey Hotel, Roscommon (F42 F992) – Wednesday, 3rd March 2027
Both events will run from 9am to 3pm, with a dedicated sensory hour from 2pm to 3pm to provide a more relaxed environment for those who may benefit from it.

Whether you are looking to learn new skills, make a fresh start, progress your career, support someone on their learning journey, or simply find out what opportunities are available in your area, GRETB Open Day is an opportunity to discover what's possible through lifelong learning.
