The benefits of lifelong learning go beyond the traditional view of keeping the mind sharp or improving memory.  In today’s global work force, continual learning is an important component of improving job skills.  You may wish to learn a skill to enhance your possibilities in the job market, take professional training in a particular area, re-train in a new area for future employment or take a stepping stone to further education. Sancta Maria College now offers a varied adult education programme for Post Leaving Cert/Mature students. Courses are currently offered in the following areas:

The Further Education and Training Awards Council (FETAC) is the statutory awarding body for further education and training in Ireland. FETAC makes quality assured awards that are part of the National Framework of Qualifications (NFQ) from levels 1-6. Meeting learner needs is central to the work of FETAC. 
FETAC:

  • makes and promotes awards on the National Framework of Qualifications
  • determines standards and award requirements
  • validates programmes leading to awards
  • monitors and quality assures programmes and services

Over 1.1 million awards were made by the Council since FETAC’s establishment in June 2001 to the end of 2010.
Certificates are awarded for the achievement of major awards, where learners achieve the national standard in a prescribed number of component areas
Component certificates are awarded for the achievement of individual areas, which can stand alone or build towards the achievement of a full certificate
Special purpose certificates are awarded for the achievement of individual areas, which are for specific, relatively narrow purposes
Supplemental certificates are awarded for the achievement of individual areas of learning that are additional to a previous major award undertaken. Further information may be obtained from the FETAC website www.fetac.ie
