Training Ireland’s Electoral Workforce with Precision and Trust.
Since 2013, Election Training Ireland has trained over 250,000 polling station staff and returning officers nationwide, helping safeguard democracy through world-class, scalable training solutions.

A Trusted Partner
Election Training Ireland exists to elevate the standard of polling staff training in Ireland. With a background in election office operations, our team brings more than 40 years of collective experience to every programme we deliver.
We began with in-person training and while that still forms part of our offering, we have since expanded to build a fully integrated video-led platform - Assimilate - that now trains the majority of election personnel across the country online.
Whether it’s count staff, polling station staff, or returning officers themselves, our goal is the same:
to ensure that everyone responsible for running elections is trained to the highest standard, every time.
Online Training
Assimilate is our proprietary online training platform. Unlike off-the-shelf systems, it has been built from the ground up to meet the specific needs of election staff. Assimilate delivers engaging, video-based learning modules backed by real-time analytics and learner feedback. With its intuitive design and robust support infrastructure, it ensures consistent learning outcomes across the country - quickly, securely, and at scale.
