Eligibility – Community Training Centres

Participants at the Community Training Centres are primarily young men and women between 16 and 21 years of age, who have left school without completing formal examinations (the Junior Certificate); who are experiencing difficulties finding a job; and who are keen to gain a qualification.

While this is the priority group for Community Training Centres, they can however provide for other young people under the age of 25 who are disadvantaged and unemployed, with agreement from FÁS.
