90% Funded Life Science courses available under Springboard Initiative<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

In response to the recognised skills shortage in the Irish Life Science industry there are currently fantastic courses available through the Springboard+ initiative in the sector.<\/p>\n

Previously only available to the unemployed, the programme is now open to those in employment with a massive 90% of course fees funded.<\/p>\n

At LSC, as part of our Consultant Success Programme we continually promote the importance of upskilling to our Life Science contractors in order to develop their skill-set, be best prepared for the future and to achieve career success!<\/p>\n

This initiative offers a great opportunity for those looking to get ahead in the Pharma, Biotech and Med Device sectors and as the programme has been developed with professionals in employment in mind, the majority of courses can be studied online\/part time.<\/p>\n

All of the courses offered lead to awards at certificate, degree and post-graduate level and most are one year or less in duration.\u00a0 We\u2019ve segmented the courses by discipline so take to look at the areas most relevant to you, and hopefully you\u2019ll find something of benefit to you and your career!<\/p>\n
