In 2021 LOETB opened it's first Information Hub in Lyster Square, Portlaoise. Our second hub opened in Castle Buildings, Tullamore in early 2022.

These hubs are and will be managed by the Further Education and Training (FET) Guidance team and have been designed to be a 'one stop shop' for learner information and supports.

The Information Hub is a place where you can access LOETB’s Adult Educational Guidance and Information Service (AEGIS). This service offers free, impartial, confidential guidance and information. 

In the Information Hub you can:  

• Access information on education and training options and funding supports  
• Gain a greater understanding of progression options available through Further Education and Training in LOETB with links to third level colleges
• Research course options independently or with support 
• Reserve a space to study, research or attend online classes 

These hubs will have a significant and positive impact on our FET services going forward.
