At Blackwater Training & Consulting, we offer education and training services for our community in Virginia, Co. Cavan. Our goal is to provide support to help our communities to gain the skills they need to succeed.
We provide tailor made training to address the specific learning needs and skill gaps within our community.
We support community groups to secure funding for their projects and initiatives on a local, national and European level.
We work with partner organisations in Ireland and across Europe to access Erasmus+ opportunities.
In February 2025, Blackwater Training sent three young people & one youth worker to Erzurum, Turkiye as part of the CTRL+ALT+FOR WHO? Erasmus+ programme to learn more about digitalisation and its challenges in the future.
For me and my team, travelling to Erzurum was a colourful and unusual experience.
We were delighted to be hosted in Aveiro, Portugal, by our partners DCTR for a two-day knowledge-sharing seminar as part of our Erasmus+ Crossroads project. This seminar brought together partners from Ireland, France, and Portugal to discuss key aspects of the project and explore ways to support migrant communities more effectively
On Saturday, 8 February, we proudly hosted the Community Mapping Clinic as part of the Erasmus+ Crossroads project in Virginia Show Centre, Virginia, Co. Cavan.
