Student Testimonials

"I have recently finished the FETAC Childcare Studies level 5 Course. I was very impressed by the course and it was very interesting and helpful for my future career in the childcare sector. I could say that the tutors were very nice, professional and helpful. Both tutors and staff gave us so much support over the past few months. I learned a great deal about child development and childcare settings in Ireland. I have enjoyed arts and craft class so much that I did not mind that the class took place on Saturday. I would recommend this course to everyone who is interested to work in childcare sector." Martina

"I enjoyed the pre-nursing course so much because all the subjects were interesting, its a three day a week course with one day on work experience each week. The tutors were skilled lecturers who were very helpful. It's a great place for learning and to meet new friends. One of my favourite subjects was 'Introduction to Nursing' because there was both theory and practical parts. I foumd that everything we learned in class really helped with work experience. Overall Pre Nursing was a great course, I really enjoyed it! It's a great subject that I would recommend Dorset College to anyone who has an interest in the nursing area.
