Rathmines Pembroke Community Partnership have organised and funded two free STEPS training programmes for parents and for the unemployed from Dublin 4, 6, 6W and 12.
The Steps To Excellence for Personal Success programme helps participants to improve their levels of motivation and self-esteem, as well as giving them the confidence to deal with change. The specific courses also help parents to develop their parenting skills, such as their involvement with their children’s school lives; and help unemployed participants to improve their self-belief and develop their future.
The programme for the unemployed will run from 9.30am to 12.30pm on Thursdays and Fridays from the February 26 to March 13. The venue has yet to be named, but will be confirmed after registration.
