CBT Systems is planning to double the size of its Irish plant in Clonskeagh, Co Dublin. The company, which produces educational software titles, is doubling the size of the plant to 60,000 sq ft, giving it considerable new capacity.

In addition, the company plans to use Dublin as the headquarters for its new European telesales operation. It is doing this through the acquisition of the American company, Forefront, which has a telesales base in Dublin which CBT will now use.
