Having launched REBOOT in September 2021, over 50 organisations have benefitted from FREE training and support from industry experts to help their business evolve and grow from the impacts of C19. Now, as we emerge from C19 and businesses need to refocus their businesses, REBOOT can help.
REBOOT training and networking will prioritise resiliency, agility, cost management, innovation, health and safety and ecommerce/Social Media management – all critically important to business.
Aim of the REBOOT Programme:
Reboot is a co-operative collaboration designed to assist the recovery of rural businesses and social enterprises in the aftermath of the Covid19 pandemic. Following the success of our courses in Q4 2021, attended by 75 people from over 50 different organisations, REBOOT has designed a new Programme of Training events which will seek to build on knowledge/skillsets honed to date, and provide areas of interest to organisations new to REBOOT. The programme consists of FREE tailored training, skills development, expert 1:1s and networking opportunities in Sligo, Mayo and Roscommon.
Reboot has identified 3 critical areas to assist businesses/social enterprises/community groups post C19:
- Social Media, e-commerce, online marketing
- Optimising your business for future opportunities and challenges
- Minimising risks and optimising Health & Safety
Over the course of the next 12 months, organisations can access tailored training courses, get expert advice and tips on a 1:1 basis, and have the opportunity to network with their peers at organised events where they can share experiences and address challenges they face.
Speaking at the launch of the 2022 Programme, Sue O’Toole, SWMDC Senior LEADER Enterprise Officer said:
“We are excited to launch the 2022 REBOOT Programme to support our rural business and social enterprises in Mayo, Roscommon and Sligo. Since launching in Q4 2021, REBOOT has proved extremely popular with 75 participants from over 50 organisations availing of FREE training and supports to date. Our programme for 2022 aims to build on that success. It is a great opportunity for businesses offering FREE training, expert 1:1s and strategic networking across key issues facing organisations after almost 2 years of disruption. REBOOT aims to foster resiliency, agility, cost management, innovation, health and safety and to maximise online sales/social media presence. Reboot activities are available to any business or social enterprise who is based in Sligo, Mayo and Roscommon and all the courses are FREE to participants.
