The two people behind the podcast is Martin McGovern who is a Guidance Counsellor at CMETB and Eddie Halligan who is the co-host of the Podcast and is a tutor at Cavan Institute. Speaking to Northern Sound both Martin and Eddie explained that 'The Journey Podcast', aims to inspire and support individuals on their path to Further Education and Training (FET).
"One of the main barriers that we've seen from a lot of adults in particular is a lack of confidence, when you hear someone in their 60s talking about when they were 50 going back after having kids and raising their family to sitting up at night doing a course step by step, it sends such a powerful message to people and really does inspire others." The highly anticipated AONTAS Adult Learners Festival is set to make a triumphant return from March 4th to the 8th, more details can be found by visiting www.cmetb.ie/events
