The Eventbrite links will be live on 24th of October for Foundation course and 25th of October for Award 1 courses.
If you book a Foundation Course you will also be contacted about Child Protection registration. Both Foundation and Child Protection must be completed to receive certification. You must have completed a Foundation Course before completing Award 1.
Games Development manager Aaron Kyles is available to answer queries at aaron.kyles.gdm.donegal@gaa.ie but is on annual leave for the week October 24th until October 31st. People can, of course, book online during that period and Aaron will email the registration link. However, in the event that Aaron misses the booking while on leave there is no need to panic. Once the booking has gone through Eventbrite the place on the course is saved and Aaron will get you the registration link when he returns to his office. The Eventbrite links are:
