How does TTRS work?
If you are a member of Meath County Council Library Service and if you have Internet access at home, then you can use TTRS at home. Alternatively, you can access it from one of our public PCS in the library. The course is very user-friendly. There are many different levels and modules which learners can work through and improve on, and on completion you can get a Certificate of Completion to represent all the hard work you have done! In addition to the main TTRS course, there is also a TTRS subjects section. This is only recommended after learners have completed at least 3 levels of the main course. Subjects include maths, grammar and science.
