We offer a wide range of full-time day and part-time evening courses including QQI Level 5 and 6 Major Awards, as well as non-certified courses. These provide pathways to progression into skilled employment or further and higher education.
We have a long history of delivering courses in a variety of areas, including Art, Business, Beauty and Hairdressing, Childcare, Creative Media, Computers, Healthcare, Science and Engineering, Sport, and many more. You may have known us previously as LCFE (Limerick College of Further Education), or even as Limerick Senior College! Now, we are part of Limerick and Clare Education and Training Board’s multi-campus College of Further Education and Training.
Our courses are delivered at our Mulgrave Street Campus, close to the heart of Limerick City Centre, with some delivered at our nearby Kilmallock Road Campus. Our full-time courses are fully-funded, so there are no fees to pay. Our part-time evening/night courses include fee paying, as well as some funded options.
This video from our recent Campus Open Day gives a snapshot of our campus facilities and courses.
