    Hey all,

    I have just been told by a mate, that if I've been on the dole a certain length of time. I can go back to college without paying any fee's or registration fee's.

    He was pretty vague on the whole thing, so decided I'd ask on here...

    I already have a lvl 8 business degree, was looking at getting into one of those IT conversion courses.

    Very confused, so any help would be fantastic.

    Cheers in advance:)

    I think if you have a lvl 8 already they won't let you do another lvl 8 it has to be a higher degree.

    Hey guys,

    Just wondering does anyone know exactly how courses through BlueBrick work, as a jobseeker are the ICT courses available for free to me and would I still be able to avail of my dole payments?

    Again me a friend were just talking about this, but at the minute I'm unable to get the BlueBrick site to load on this laptop:(
