It’s the New Year and traditionally a time of new beginnings where we think of how we want our lives to be different this year. 
For many people education is a wonderful way of making changes you want in your life, be it retraining for a new career, brushing up on forgotten skills or simply taking up a new hobby or interest.
You may also be feeling that you want to find your spark and create plans for the future or even fan the flames of success so that you can create the life you really want!
The last few years have been very difficult for many but with green shoots now showing in the economy and more opportunities becoming available, it is an excellent time to find out all the opportunities that are available to you.
Donegal ETB is organising Adult Learner Fair 2014 which will be taking place in the Mount Errigal Hotel, Letterkenny on Wednesday, the 22nd of January, from 11am to 3pm.
For many adults in the County, the Adult Learner Fair is one of the most important annual events in the education calendar.
This year is the eleventh anniversary of the Fair and the first one under the auspices of Donegal ETB, the new state body charged with bringing together for the first time, adult, further education and training.
We have decided to focus again this year on making the exhibition of education, training and support organisation our best yet.
Where over 60 organisations will be providing information and advice on courses, training, education and support covering a range of programmes from return to learning through to access to third level education and beyond.
Adult Guidance Co-ordinator with Donegal ETB Sean Debney, “We are really excited about this years event and we hope that the Fair will inspire adults to make informed decisions about their future.
“For those who need a little help in deciding what they would like to do experienced Guidance Counsellors will be on hand to point people in the right direction.
“The Fair will be of particular interest to those who are facing an uncertain time or are recently unemployed, those who are interested in returning to learning.
“Maybe for the first time since leaving school, or for those who are on a course and want to find out where to go next.
“It will also be a great opportunity for those who are considering a career change or who want to improve their current job prospects.
“This is a fantastic opportunity to find out everything you need to know about returning to education and at a time of year that gives you the time to plan how you are going to make it happen.
“For many people in Donegal, the Fair has been the place where they took the first step to a new and brighter future.
