About Us
Professional, Supportive
and Experienced.
The Irish Institute of Training & Development, founded in 1969, is the non-profit professional body representing members concerned with human resource training and development in Ireland.


It is so important to be part of a community especially if you’re new to L&D. There is a fantastic generosity of spirit among the L&DI network and everyone is so supportive with guidance and advice. L&DI’s excellent mentoring offer is the perfect way for L&D professionals to easily connect with fellow practitioners.

Sometimes people think of learning as an individual activity conducted in isolation, but the reality is that learning is very much a social experience. It is a collaborative venture and events, whether they are workshop sessions, webinars, or keynote presentations, gives members the chance to listen to other people, and to develop your ideas alongside your peers.

I am really privileged and grateful to be on the MSc in Strategic L&D. If it wasn’t for the support from the L&D Skillnet, I could not have accessed the programme. The funding offered by Skillnet Ireland is key to agreeing support and sponsorship for programmes within the organisation.

L&DI sets the standards and benchmarks for best practice in L&D in Ireland. Having our programmes endorsed by L&DI really elevates the value of the training we provide. It is a quality mark that connects our brand with the industry standard.

Accessing L&DI resources database is a great way to tune into what’s going on in the L&D world. Whether that’s a blog or an article, it is crucial to keep connected with the wider conversation around your profession.

It’s a great way to keep yourself tuned into what’s going on in the L&D world, whether that’s a blog or an article, you need to keep connected with the wider conversation around your profession.

It is really important to our students that we are leading the way in terms of our own curriculum, and I would lean heavily on L&DI for research. The research papers that they launch really give me a good insight into emerging trends in L&D and that ensures we are ahead of the game when it comes to our own curriculum development.
