Hi. Single mam of two here. I am a qualified beautician but wants to further my skills to get back into employment. I am currently on one parent family. Hoping to do a gel nail course but the prices are astronomical. Courses are around the €600 mark and I do not have that type of money spare to spend on a course.

Thanks.

Social welfare will pay for particular courses especially one that might enhance any experience you already have.
Ask in your local social welfare office.
