About Skillnet Ireland

Skillnet Ireland is a business support agency of the Government of Ireland, responsible for advancing the competitiveness, productivity and innovation of businesses operating in Ireland through enterprise-led workforce development.

The primary objective of Skillnet Ireland is to increase participation in enterprise training by businesses. We believe that training and upskilling are key elements in keeping businesses competitive in both a domestic and international context. We also believe that training and upskilling significantly enhances the career mobility of the workforce.

About Skillnet Ireland

As Ireland’s only business support agency dedicated to workforce development, we put enterprise in control of the process. We partner with over 57 industry bodies that are either sectoral or geographically based and foster a networked and partnership-based approach that leverages Ireland’s open culture of collaboration. 

Skillnet Ireland operates on a joint investment model, where Government grants are combined with contributions from enterprise, thus reducing costs and other barriers for businesses.
