NLN Sligo Leitrim

NLN Sligo Leitrim At NLN Sligo Leitrim, we provide inclusive, person-centred training in a supportive and welcoming environment.

We support people to build confidence, develop skills, and progress towards further education and employment. At NLN in Sligo we provide a range of free courses to people who have
had an accident, illness, injury or have a disability and extra support
needs. Our courses are tailored to each student's needs, to help
them to build their confidence while getting practical job-seeking
skills to help them get a job or go on to further training.

Great day had in the ATU Sligo & ATU St Angelas on Tuesday.

Some of our students visited Maker Space, where we had the opportunity to find out more about 3d printing and other technologies.

We also got to use the really cool laser cutter to make our own designs.
