About Springboard+
At National College of Ireland we have the opportunity to offer a number of free courses through the Springboard+ initiative and Human Capital Initiative (HCI). These initiatives address skills shortages in the workforce and so are funded by the government to improve Ireland's ability to fill job vacancies.

Springboard+ is co-funded by the Government of Ireland and the European Union. For more information about EU Funds please visit www.EUFunds.ie.

If you are being redirected to the HEA home page rather than to the Springboard website, this may be due to a system restriction incorporated on this site to block users who are trying to access from outside the state. Springboard can only be accessed within Ireland.
Please note that company servers and VPN can also give the appearance that users are attempting to access the site from outside the country.
