PICTURES: Students celebrate at FET graduation event in Tipperary

Tipperary ETB’s Tipperary FET (Further Education and Training) College held a memorable awards ceremony at Cahir House Hotel, celebrating the great work done by adult learners from the Cahir, Cashel and Killenaule areas.

The ceremony on Thursday, 23 October, saw over 150 successful students receive their well-deserved certificates for a range of educational programmes. This year’s awards were given for completing National Framework of Qualifications (NFQ) Levels 1, 2, 3 and 5 courses, along with International Computer Driving License (ICDL) certification. The whole morning felt like a genuine celebration, full of pride.

A key moment was the Learner Reflection delivered by Siobhán Ronan. Siobhán shared a powerful, humorous and authentic account of her learning journey. Her story was deeply inspiring, showing everyone that the real value of education is the chance to move forward, and that a few laughs along the way don't hurt.

Tipperary ETB Board Chairperson, Cllr Roger Kennedy, and Adult Education Officer, Deborah Ryan, gave uplifting speeches, which added to the spirit of unity and celebration.

This event was a true celebration of dedication and effort, and Tipperary ETB extends its sincere thanks to everyone who helped make the awards ceremony such a success.
