DONEGAL ETB LIMITED

Donegal Education and Training Board (Donegal ETB) is the public body responsible for delivering a comprehensive portfolio of education and training services throughout County Donegal. From 15 post‑primary schools and colleges to a vibrant Further Education and Training (FET) programme, the Board supports learners of all ages – from early school leavers to adult apprentices – and holds the statutory duty for youth work across the county.

Key specialisations include outdoor education at Gartan, a thriving music‑education offering, and a full suite of apprenticeship routes that span craft, engineering and digital skills. The Board also runs dedicated youth services, quality‑assurance frameworks and employer‑focused support, ensuring that training aligns with local industry needs. Its community‑learning initiatives, such as the Adult Literacy for Life programme, further demonstrate a commitment to lifelong learning and social inclusion.

Rooted in the heart of Donegal, Donegal ETB works closely with schools, colleges, employers and community groups to respond flexibly to local aspirations, helping individuals become confident citizens and skilled contributors to the regional economy.
