- National College of Ireland’s mission is to change lives through education. For the 6,000-strong student body, both undergrad and postgrad, full- and part-time, this mission is realised not just through internationally recognised qualifications delivered by expert faculty – all courses are accredited by Quality and Qualifications Ireland (QQI) and many bring with them certification or exemptions from professional bodies – but also through a strongly supportive environment.
- Located at the intersection of the IFSC and the Silicon Docks, with its own Luas stop: Mayor Square – NCI, the College has strong connections with the businesses surrounding it. With nearly 70 years’ experience of working with employers to identify skills gaps and delivering education and careers service to ambitious students, NCI has a 98% graduate employment rate.
- Specialising in computing, psychology, accountancy, marketing, business, human resource management and learning and teaching, NCI makes its courses accessible through innovative and flexible delivery mechanisms, including apprenticeships, online and blended learning, and classes delivered in the evening and/or at the weekend. Recognition of Prior Experiential Learning (RPEL) may be used at NCI, to satisfy or partially bridge entry requirements when an applicant may not have the minimum academic qualification for a course, or to permit advanced entry or module exemptions.
