On Tuesday's Morning Focus, Alan Morrissey and the team broadcast live from ETB College Campus in Ennis, welcoming a variety of engaging guests throughout the day.

The show kicked off with Lena Hughes, Community Education Adult Educator, who explained what community education is and highlighted the Introduction to Foraging Course. Brian Higgins and Bernie Harrington, Community Education learners, joined Alan to share their experiences on the course, the opportunities it has opened up, and much more.

Alan was then joined live by Crona O’Dea and Shannon MacNamara, both PLC learners. They discussed the courses they are currently studying and shared their future plans once they complete their programs.

Later in the show, Femi Odubote explained the RPL (Recognition of Prior Learning) program, which values and recognizes professional work experience as equally important to traditional classroom learning. Lexi Bowe and Kate Quinlan, Youthreach learners, spoke about their experiences with Youthreach and the courses they are undertaking.

To close the show, Alan sat down with Marie O’Callaghan, PLC Coordinator and Guidance, and Una Howley, Guidance Counsellor. They discussed the Ennis College of Further Education and Training, with Una providing insight into information and guidance within the LCETB and advice on taking the next step in education or training.
