    If you mean the VTOS Travel Allowance then the answer is probably no. VTOS is a scheme that usually operates in adult education centers. The highest level of qualification available through adult ed is FETAC level 6. Anything at level 7 or higher is offered through an Institute of Technology/ other HEI so VTOS isn't an option.

    That sounds right. Thanks. I was wondering because you can get a travel allowance when on back to education allowance at plc level.

    No - only on vtos

    It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.
