Learner Supports

Learner Supports

Cavan and Monaghan Education and Training Board (CMETB) aim to support all learners to be successful at whichever course they embark on. We realise that our learners come from a variety of backgrounds, have distinct needs in terms of learning and may need support on their path to achieving their ambitions.

We strive to provide our learners with appropriate supports so that they can participate fully in their course. Usually, learners are registered on www.fetchcourses.ie and are currently attending a course within our Further Education and Training (FET) Services: Browse all Programmes

All information that you provide is completely confidential. With your permission, information regarding your requirements will be sent to relevant people who can provide you with the necessary supports required. We will not divulge the nature of your requirements with anyone.
