Course summary

This new course is based around the principals of flexible learning, which is an approach to learning that expands your choice on what, when, where and how you learn. Flexible learning consists of Irish accredited programme or modules on the National Frameworks of Qualifications that are not facilitated through the CAO. On this course, students will be given the opportunity to acquire and develop skills in Drawing and Painting. The part-time programme offered here is designed for mature students who are actively engaged with life long learning. The course structure follows a third level format and at different points throughout the programme, demonstrations will be given by tutors to enable students to acquire the knowledge and skills to progress with confidence. Each subject is given a number of time blocks ranging from 2 – 4 weeks. The major focus of this course is Drawing and Painting; however, these are complimented by Art History & Appreciation. Throughout the year students will have access to a studio space from Monday – Friday, however, tutor contact occurs over two set days per week. * not recommended for students interested in preparing a portfolio for college applications.
