We_They first opened its doors to the public in 1908. From our earliest incarnation the College recognised the importance of coordinating commercial education with the business life of the city, so that, as our first Principal D.A. Coakley stated, “students may be more easily enabled to pass from their study to the practice of business.” The College has maintained that tradition and continually evolves to meet the educational needs of the region.

The College was in the forefront of the development of Further Education Courses in the 1980’s and continually liaises with commercial and educational bodies in the locality to ensure that all our courses are relevant to the learner and quality assured.

There were also over two and a half thousand students who attended evening courses in the college, on a part-time basis, in the past academic year.
