We have recently received word of multi-year funding for our Postgraduate Certificate programmes, thanks to our government funding partner, Springboard+.
Over the next three years over a thousand life-long learners will have the opportunity to participate in Post Graduate programmes in Workplace Wellness, Innovation and Enterprise Development, Creative and Cultural Entrepreneurship, Healthcare Innovation and Climate Entrepreneurship.
This means that our most popular course ever run here in Tangent, our Postgraduate Certificate in Climate Entrepreneurship, is back for 2022 in collaboration with Trinity School of Natural Sciences. It is a privilege to play a small part in solving the climate crisis, enabling transformative learning experiences to those developing green solutions encompassing every element of modern life – from aviation and agrifood, to banking and energy. I look forward to this programme kicking off on 23rd September – more details below.
Another highlight on the horizon is the culmination of our 5-month AI accelerator Alsessor. I would personally like to invite you to attend this in-person event in Tangent on Wednesday 22nd June. To attend, sign up here, and read more below . Alsessor Demo Day marks the end of this accelerator where one finalist will have the chance to impress the judging panel and secure investment. Investors are welcome to join this event, with opportunities to invest in one of these fantastic high potential companies.
“It is imperative for Ireland’s competitiveness, productivity and innovation performance that people can reskill and upskill in order to meet the challenges of transformation, including digitalisation, green and other challenges. A strengthened national focus on lifelong learning will be critical to enterprise transformation and agility.”
Happy reading,
Ken
