In relation to running Training Courses for the unemployed, the person in question could be advised to go the eTenders website regarding FÁS Contracted Training and complete the pre-qualification application, which also gives instructions regarding what to do. In addition he could contact Skillnets (www.skillnets.ie) who may be able to provide further options. However, regarding the issue of state supports to support a Business, the Department of Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation may be best placed to advise on this matter.
