About Dunhill Multi-Education Centre
Suide Iol Oidis Duin Aill Cuideachta Faoi Theorainn Ráthaíochta trading as Dunhill Multi-Education Centre is a community owned education, training & conference centre in east County Waterford. Guided by the principles of Access, Opportunity and Excellence, the mission of the centre is to provide a hub of learning excellence, to create opportunities for people to succeed and facilitate access to education for all groups. The centre aims to provide equal access to learning where all people have the opportunity to acquire and develop the skills needed to participate in today's knowledge based society. The values that are important to us are integrity, honesty, staff wellbeing and open communication.
Dunhill Multi-Education Centre provides a community resource for the surrounding area which includes meeting space, services such as community garden, library & events, training facilities, and management of a number of public and heritage areas locally. The centre is targeted at groups including the elderly and people with disabilities, but provides services for all individuals and groups within the community and further afield. These services are funded under the Department of Rural & Community Development, with the centre operating under the Community Services Programme administered by Pobal.
Traditionally receiving contributions to manager and FTEs under the Pobal Community Services Programme funded by the Department of Rural & Community Development, the company is also required to generate areas of income to continue its service. Among other services, the centre provides contracted training to both public and private companies locally and regionally. The centre also continues to provide meeting space and services to a number of users, groups & businesses, with varying contributions to the services, ranging from free to a full rate service.
The company also acts as the sponsor for the Waterford Wexford Education & Training Board funded Local Training Initiative Tourism Trails with Smart Media Programme.
