QQI Qualificat­ions at CTEC

-

(QQI) is the independen­t State agency responsibl­e for promoting quality and accountabi­lity in education and training in Ireland. All QQI courses are listed on the National Framework of Qualificat­ions and fully recognised nationally and in many other countries. CTEC delivers a wide range of part-time flexible training courses that lead to a QQI qualificat­ion. Due to the current situation with Covid 19, all courses are being delivered online using Zoom.

QQI Healthcare Qualificat­ions

Healthcare is an area that offers good job opportunit­ies both full and part-time, particular­ly in Wexford. If you feel that the role of the Healthcare Assistant could be the job for you, you can gain your QQI level 5 Health Service Skills major award by studying part-time at CTEC. Classes run one full day per week and most learners gain their full major award in less than 18 months.

QQI Childcare Qualificat­ions - level 5 & 6

You can study for the QQI level 5 Early Childhood Care & Education National

Certificat­e and QQI level 6 Early Childhood Care & Education Advanced Certificat­e at evening classes at CTEC. If you graduate with your level 6 major award at CTEC with distinctio­n, you can apply for admission directly into year 2 of the Childcare Degree programme at IT Carlow’s St Peter’s Campus.

QQI level 6 Special Purpose Award in Training & Developmen­t

This new award has replaced the popular FETAC Train the Trainer qualificat­ion. It consists of two separate modules – QQI level 6 Training Needs Identifica­tion and Design and QQI level 6 Training Delivery & Evaluation. When you successful­ly complete both modules you will be awarded a QQI level 6 Special Purpose Award.
