At Rahoo, once you successfully complete your EPV summer course, your Professional Tutor will issue you with an EPV Certificate – yay! You give this to your principal.

EPV days are subject to Board of Management approval so all course days have to be approved by the school principal. Some schools have strict policies on when they can be taken.
The Covid roll-over of EPV days has now finished.

Our CPD Summer Courses are €79 each.

Can I swap my course dates?
Unfortunately, it is not possible to change and swap dates. If you do not do your course in the dates allocated, you cannot get EPV approval. All courses are 2 weeks, as per DES rules. We cannot make exceptions.
Can I do my EPV courses at the same time?
According to DES rules, participants must completed one course at a time as exact dates of course completion will be noted on certificates.
Which EPV course should I pick?
That’s like asking us to name our favourite child…!
We have fantastic EPV courses to choose from.
Since it’s launch in 2020, our Classroom Management EPV Course with Irish Primary Teacher has been extremely popular!
Supporting Children with Challenging Behaviour was our most popular course in 2022!
Another EPV course in high popularity is Fostering Emotional Resilience & Harmony in the Classroom.
Supporting the Teaching & Learning of EAL Students was hugely popular in 2023.
We have 2 new EPV courses coming too!
That being said, you should choose a course that you need to learn something from – our lesson planning, worklife balance and assessment EPV courses always get great feedback too.
Do you have wellbeing courses?
We have two courses that fit into this category!
- Work Smarter Be Happier for Teachers is about streamlining work practices for better balance.
- Fostering Emotional Resilience & Harmony is very popular and teachers say it helps with student and teacher wellbeing.
Both courses have modules dedicated to teacher wellbeing – enjoy!
Do NQTs get EPV days?
Officially, no.
However, some Board of Managements allow it.
So it depends.
Can I do my EPV courses at the same time?
According to DES rules, participants must completed one course at a time as exact dates of course completion will be noted on certificates.
Why can't we do more than one?
You can!
Just not at the same time!
If your EPV certificate dates overlap, they may not be accepted.
Teachers usually do one EPV course over 3 days and then move onto their second or third course.
