FACILITATOR TRAINING: UPDATE - JUNE 2020
Rainbows Ireland has started the process to have Rainbows Facilitator and Coordinator training available as on-line training. This decision has been taken in light of the ongoing health and safety advice as the country begins to open up.
Details of the training arrangements and how to apply will be posted here on our website and on our social media platforms, as soon as the training is available to start.
All current registered Rainbows centres will be notified of the new arrangements as soon as the training information is available.
This decision to have the Rainbows Facilitator training available on-line is a temporary response to the current pandemic situation.
Please be aware that applications for training are accepted from Registered Rainbows Programme Centres.
