CÚRSAÍ SPEISIALTA
/ Special Courses and Group Arrangements

Cúrsaí do Ghrúpaí / Group Courses

Irish courses are organised during the year at beginner and intermediate levels by special request. We custom–tailor packages to suit individual groups. See Here for details, or Contact Us to discuss your group's interests and requirements at no obligation.

OIDEAS GAEL offers group study or semester programmes for universities, companies, social clubs and other organisations who would like specialist courses on the Irish language, culture, traditional music, archaeology, environment, folklore, weaving or other disciplines.

Combination courses are also organised by special arrangement. Accommodation and travel can be arranged to suit particular requirements. These courses are offered outside of our regular summer schedule, thus giving students an excellent opportunity to interact with local people and to participate in the everyday life of the community.

Cúrsaí do Mhúinteoirí / Courses for Teachers

• Tugtar aitheantas bliantúil do chúrsaí Oideas Gael faoi Riail 58 mar chúrsaí in-seirbhíse a thuilleann saoire bhreise phearsanta. Courses are usually recognised by 'An Roinn Oideachais' under Rule 58 for in-service training and extra personal leave.

• All Oideas Gael Irish language courses are appropriate for teachers wishing to learn and improve their spoken Irish for 'Scrúdú Cáilíochta na Gaeilge' (SCG) and other qualifications.
