Dunboyne College of Further Education offers a diverse choice of certified courses. They provide courses to help you get started in any chosen career path, including nursing, teaching, science, sports coaching, web design, accounting, sound engineering, and art. You will graduate from DCFE with the information and abilities needed for your next move. We provide both theoretical and practical training.
Dunboyne College has established a stellar reputation over the last ten years by offering the best possible education and training programs. The personnel at their college are very skilled, driven, and interested in the well-being of students. Dunboyne College of Further Education offers support to learners of all ages, and it has a very good history of helping senior applicants resume their education.
Their students achieve outstanding results. More than 90% of students who complete an award will go on to accept offers and pursue higher education. The establishment of strong ties with both Maynooth University and the Technical University of Dublin has been facilitated by the college’s close proximity to both establishments. Through the Higher Education Links Scheme, a large number of their students continue on to certificate and degree programs at these and numerous other third-level institutions, including DCU, UCD, and Trinity College Dublin. If a spot is unavailable in Ireland, DCFE's connections with partner schools in the UK allow students to finish their degrees in nursing, law, sports science, and many other fields.
By 2020, Dunboyne College will have over 1000 pupils, up from 40 in 2003. The management and staff's vision, motivation, and passion are evident in this fast growth. In September 2022, we are excited to welcome a new class of students.
