About Us County Roscommon HEC is a third level outreach centre offering third level courses from a number of colleges across Ireland. It was established in September 2003 by a consortium of education, training, and business interests in Co. Roscommon, with Roscommon Vocational Education Committee as the lead agency. The primary aim of the Centre is to address the educational and business needs of County Roscommon.
County Roscommon HEC co-ordinates, delivers and sources third level courses in County Roscommon for the following:
· Adult learners: Individuals who wish to pursue an academic qualification either for career or self-development reasons.
· Adult returners: Individuals who are returning to education after a prolonged period of absence from the educational sector.
· Business/Organisations: Agencies who wish to rent the use of the centre for training days or seminars or to gain accreditation in business related courses.
· Voluntary/Community Sector: Organisations who wish to rent the use of the centre for training days or seminars, or to gain accreditation in community development courses.
Funding for County Roscommon Higher Centre was received from the Border Midland West Regional Assembly under the European Regional Development Fund’s Innovative Actions Programme. The Centre also received funding from the Dormant Accounts Disbursement Fund and through cash and in-kind contributions made by members of the consortium.
