MTU, Kerry ETB lead way on support initiative

MTU and Kerry ETB are playing a central role in rolling out a new, first-of-its-kind initiative that provides support for young people with foster care or care experience as they navigate through their third level education.

As part of a new landmark initiative MTU and Kerry ETB, UCC, Cork ETB, Tusla, and EPIC (Empowering People in Care) have formed an education partnership, which is the first of its kind in Ireland.
