About Us
Why Us?
We offer student-centred education in a friendly and supportive atmosphere. Because we’re a small college, we have greater flexibility in supporting the needs of our students than larger institutions. There is a strong focus by staff on meeting the individual needs of all students.
The staff have extensive industry experience in their respective fields and are dedicated to ensuring that, whether aiming to move to Higher Education or entering the employment market, students leave the college with every skill necessary for the future.
The courses offered in the college combine practical training with the development of strong academic skills in order to develop lifelong learning skills for all our students. Because all of our courses are accredited by QQI (formerly FETAC) they offer an alternative pathway to universities and Institutes of Technology. Indeed, Stillorgan College has an excellent record in facilitating students to progress to degree courses.
The college has state-of-the-art facilities and our computer, media and other equipment are constantly upgraded to keep up with today’s ever-changing technology.
Sited close to Stillorgan Shopping Centre, the college is serviced by many bus routes and is also accessible via Dart and Luas networks. Car parking is available on the college grounds.
