Open your eyes to a future full of possibility with Further Education and Training
Three Cork Colleges of Further Education and Training (under the Cork ETB umbrella) announce upcoming open days
Deciding on your future in Further Education and Training, can sometimes be a long and arduous chore, attending multiple open days, researching courses and talking to other people who have gone down your path. The important thing is to be able to select the right course for you, the course that best fits in with your career path, and which provides you with the best preparation to continue with your studies, or to enter into the world of work immediately after completing your course. This year however, Cork Education and Training Board (CETB) are making future student lives a lot easier with three open days taking place on the one day at three of their Further Education and Training Colleges.
Prospective students who will be finishing their second level studies, or will be looking to retrain or upskill, are invited to attend the open days at three of the largest PLC colleges in the country; namely Cork College of Commerce, St. John’s Central College and Coláiste Stiofáin Naofa, Cork onTuesday March 7th 2017. All three Cork based colleges are under the umbrella of the CETB and are proudly showcasing their diverse range of full time Post Leaving Certificate (PLC) courses across a wide and diverse range of disciplines to suit all areas of student interest. The open days will demonstrate the full range of facilities on offer at each campus and provide all the necessary information on courses, how to apply as well as opportunities to meet with current students and teaching staff to get guidance on finding the ideal educational opportunity to catapult them towards a successful future.
