Galway Technical Institute (GTI) is one of the leading colleges of Further Education in Ireland, providing QQI Level 5 & 6 courses to over 1,100 learners annually. Within GTI, ‘Applied Learning’ has become the most effective and exciting way to teach the key skills required for the 21st Century. GTI’s underlying philosophy is about learning together. This is centred on learner activity, collaborative learning and critically, learning to learn.
At GTI, courses are designed to be of immediate and practical use in the workplace or as a stepping stone to further study and higher qualifications. GTI’s philosophy is to provide their students with learning experiences that involve solving problems that are based on real-life situations, by bringing the real world into the classroom and the classroom into the real world. To maintain its status as best in class in its delivery of two key programmes, GTI now intends to establish a Dynamic Purchasing System for the supply of Specialised Hair and Beauty Products and Related Services.
