15375 - LEVEL 5 EDUCATION AND TRAINING AWARD (5M3635) ONE YEAR
This course is delivered collaboratively with Whitehall College of Further Education and Dublin City University (DCU). Learners will spend one day a week in DCU as two modules will be taught in DCU at first year degree level. The course aims to provide a foundation for students who wish to progress to the Degree in Education and Training in DCU. Tom is currently studying in DCU, he completed our Education and Training course in 2019 and shared the following - 'Prior to starting the Education and Training course, I had very little confidence that I could achieve much in terms of academics or a career. Over the year I gained friendships, support, mentorship from staff, insight into myself and most importantly the confidence to believe that I'm capable of more than I was giving myself credit for. I recommend Education and Training at Whitehall College if your interested in a career in Education. '
