    Anyone know when applications for 2017/2018 Springboard courses can be completed. I'm thinking of doing an IT conversion course at my local institute of technology and just wondering if anyone knows.

    HI All,

    I am just wondering if anyone has any experience with doing a springboard course. I am working in a software company doing testing and QA etc and don't have an actual IT based qualification.

    Would anyone have any recommendations of a suitable springboard course for someone like me in my line of work.
    Also, my preferred option as I work full time is to do Online/Distance learning?

    Thanks

    Hi, I just got offered to do the Higher Diploma in science in Data Analytics at DKIT.

    I am wondering if anyone can answer some of the following questions for me.

    Is it hard to find work in the industry? I have a degree in Maths and Chemistry but I am currently working in a very different industry.

    What are the fees like? from my understanding, I have to pay 10%. any one know how much I should end up paying. Its a 2 year Level 8 part time.


    Thank you in advance

    I did the HDip in Data Analytics in Maynooth last year through springboard and it was completely free. I'm doing the masters this year and paying 3K in fees.
