Course location
First Steps Women's Centre
A Centre of Education exclusively for women, FSWC has been a beacon of hope, support, training and Childcare for women in the Dungannon and South Tyrone Area (and further afield, there are no exclusions).
FSWC began in humble settings in 1998 as a place for women from both sides of the community to come together to socialise, talk and to take part in different types of activities. Since then FSWC has developed into a Centre providing 300-350 course placements per year with 110 childcare places per week!
FSWC is a legally registered charity with HM Revenue & Customs and also a legal company, registered with Companies House in Belfast.
We provide training and education in many subjects including Beginners IT, Esential Skills Literacy (Basic English) & Numeracy (Basic Maths), Digital Photography, Clait Certificate, ECDL, Sage accounts, Text Processing and Digital Imaging. Our pass rates are between 75% & 100%.
Since November 2009 we have been offering Health Promotion programmes which includes an introduction to Holistic Therapies, understanding your eating and Stress Management. We have a new project - Menopause 4 Thought - which will be offering various activities in Stress Management, Eat to beat the menopause, Alternative Therapy taster sessions and Exercise and yoga. There will also be information sessions on Homeopathic Therapies and HRT and Conventional Medicines.
Awards
In June 2009 FSWC was the first Women’s Centre in Northern Ireland to attain Investors in People accreditation and later in the same year won the All Ireland Aontas Awards for Adult Learning Organizations.
Also short listed for the third time for the Irish News Best Place to work – Innovative employer award, (2009, 2010 & 2011)
Runner up in CO3 Awards - Leading on Learning & Development in two categories - Leadng people and Leading a smaller organisation.
