This programme was delivered over a ten week period and was funded by the Department of Social Protection and Waterford Leader Partnership under the Local & Community Development Programme. Training focused on getting participants to put in place the basics needed to start and survive in business in the short – medium term. The core modules of the programme included taxation, finance, research/market analysis, marketing, sales and operations.

Waterford Leader Partnership is hopeful of providing similar training programmes in 2011.  If you would be interested please contact Caroline O’ Brien on 058/45300 or email This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it
