| About The Course |
The programme is designed to provide an opportunity to school
leavers in possession of the School leaving Certificate to follow a
structured programme of study in that area which is closer to their
interests. The programme includes a significant amount of vocational
practice that will help students to form a clear idea of the nature
of the trade or vocation they intend to follow. Assessment of each
unit in this qualification is mainly through a system of continuous
assessment and tests. Students who show better understanding and
application will be awarded the grades of Merit or distinction.
This course provides practical and theoretical aspects of four main
trades (electrical; Mechanical; Metal Fabrication and Woodtrades).
Successful students would have experienced a good basis in tools;
materials and process handling in various trades. it would enable the
student to choose and progress in one specific trade as a career.

This will be the first step for those students who wish to continue
studying so as to get a builder's licence.
This course includes both basic practical and theoretical elements
of the building craft as well as plastering, tiling and decoration both
with paint as well as by other means. The course's aim is to convey
basic knowledge and skills with regards to tools management, use of
materials and the different processes required for this particular craft.
Successful students can then pass on to the certificate course.
