View answerI am pleased to assure the Deputy that first-year learners enrolled in the Traineeship in Visual Effects, Video and Animation Post-Production (VFA) at City of Dublin FET College Ballyfermot Road will progress to the second year of their programme in September 2025. City of Dublin ETB has advised my officials that a communication was issued in error to first year learners on the Traineeship in VFA. The centre has communicated directly with all affected learners to clarify the previous communication error and to reassure them of their continued enrolment in year two of the programme.
