    Try looking on daycourses and nightcourses.com. However many of the courses would have passed the registration dates. Depending on how long you are unemployed you may also qaulify for the new govt initiative on third level education - which can be got on the Dept of Education's website. Also look at individual colleges, universities, DIT's etc. Info on finance - can be got from www.studentfinance.ie. Depending on how long you are out of the labour market you may also qualify for BTEA - info on BTEA can be got from either the DSFA or citizensinformation website. In some areas Citizen's information use to compile a list/booklet of courses available in the local area. Hope it helps.
