Welcome to the website of Kildare Education Centre.  We hope you enjoy using it and that you find it convenient for booking places on our courses.

Since 1997 the Centre has been offering  professional development opportunities to the education community of Co Kildare, east Offaly and west Wicklow,

A programme of Local courses, projects and initiatives to support teaching and learning in our schools is offered annually.

The Centre is also involved in the development and provision of CPD opportunities at a regional, national and international  level.

In partnership with the PDST (ICT in Education)  the Centre offers a national and local ICT programme that is both Centre and  school based.

Working with and alongside the PDST the Centre supports the implementation of the National Strategy to improve Literacy and Numeracy.

We support the consolidation of curricular review through supporting  Primary teachers (TPCs) and Post primary teachers (TPNs). 

In partnership with the NIPT programme we offer support for NQTs through the NIPT Programme and Professional Support Groups (PSGs)

The Centre also works with the SESS to support teachers working in special education.

The Centre is managed by a Management Committee that is elected annually at the AGM by the members of the Centre.
