تفاصيل الدورة

At FETAC levels 4 and 5, no formal educational qualifications are required for entry onto the courses. However, it is important that learners choose the level that is most appropriate and manageable for them. We strongly recommend that you contact one of the course directors or the College if you are unsure as to what level of study at which you feel you wish to start. Informal inquiries are welcome at any stage and you can make an appointment to come into the college to discuss the course and your particular needs.
