We held an Open Day in the college on Thursday March 2nd for people interested in taking a full or part-time Further Education or Post Leaving Certificate course from next September.
We were delighted to share information about our parent-friendly timetables and in-school classes. Courses are run in Health Care Support, Nursing Studies, Social and Community Care, Community & Health Services, Special Needs Assistant, Hairdressing & Beauty Studies, Beauty Therapy, Reception & Office Administration, Business Studies, Data Centre Academy, ECDL, Return to Learning and English for Speakers of Other Languages.
Full-time courses give students the opportunity to gain a QQI Major Award over one year. Students can then progress to employment in their chosen field.
Part-time courses provide the option for students to study at a pace that suits, allowing them to complete a QQI Major Award over two years. Many Collinstown graduates have gone on to complete degrees in Nursing, Social Studies and Computer Engineering.
Graduates have also found employment with multinational companies, local businesses, hospitals, nursing homes, schools, beauty salons and as hairdressers.
Social Protection recipients may be eligible to return to education under various schemes including VTOS/BTEA/BTEI. These schemes allow eligible adults return to education without losing their benefits.
Our part-time courses are funded under the Back to Education Initiative (BTEI). Courses may be provided free of charge to eligible students in receipt of Social Protection payments/Medical Card holders or early school leavers.
