Collinstown Park Community College award ceremony for graduates of our Further Education Courses will take place on Thursday 18th October 2018 at 7.00p.m. This year over 150 students will be presented with award certificates.

The college runs an extensive further education programme including full time PLC Courses, full time VTOS Courses and part time BTEI Courses.  The Further Education Department of Collinstown Park Community College has been in operation for over 20 years now, providing education and training for the local community and further afield.  The college has a number of provisions for learners who are unwaged/unemployed or in receipt of Social Protection payments which allow people return to education while retaining their benefits. These includes VTOS and BTEA for full time students and BTEI for part time students.

The college is delighted with the success of this year’s graduate students, many of whom have gained employment since completing their qualification. Some students have chosen to continue with their studies and we are very proud to have graduates now studying on degree programmes in NUI Maynooth, Trinity College and the Institutes of Technology in Tallaght and Blanchardstown.
