partner
CTL Ireland is a newly created educational travel organisation. CTL organises customised educational and immersion programmes in Ireland for participants that are selected abroad by partner organisations. CTL Ireland offers participants the opportunity to experience and learn within local communities through volunteering, internships, service learning, secondary school abroad and other customised educational programmes. Our connections with communities, projects, institutions and local experts allow us to design programmes that meet the needs of our overseas partners. -- Why Volunteering in Ireland' Ireland is a wonderful country; it is safe, friendly, rich in heritage, history and culture. From vibrant, exciting cities to spectacular countryside – it’s a magical place to visit. It’s also a wonderful place to stay and immerse yourself. The best part of an experience in Ireland is probably connecting with local people. Visitors find Irish people friendly, welcoming and very supportive. There is in Ireland a strong sense of community with many initiatives taking place at local level. CTL select very specific community based projects where participants can have an authentic and worthwhile experience. We are proud to promote Ireland abroad as the exciting, beautiful and welcoming country that it is and as an outstanding learning destination.
