Apparently, the covid payment will last past August, probably reduced payment. But now I won't get the course unless I'm on a jobseeker's payment. So I have to pick between the covid payment or jobseeker's and do the course.

If you want to get a head start on things, no issue with you getting in contact though. I'm going to wait until the deadline passes and get the email for my lecturers.

Early last week a friend mentioned the courses available via Springboard, which I'd never heard of before. Can anyone advise if-- 1) Am I eligible to apply for a business course? I think I overlooked some of the info online or misunderstood it, am I correct in thinking that I am eligible even though I'm only in receipt of JB for the last few weeks? I think that what is confusing me is the info on Springboard advising you have to be in receipt of "DEASP payment for 9 of the previous 12 months if they wish to participate on one-year full-time ICT Skills Conversion courses." That just applies to ICT courses and not other part-time courses, right? 2) I applied for a couple of courses at UL last week (on July 15 and 17) but haven't heard anything back yet, deadline is today. I haven't even received the email from UL requesting my supporting documents as they don't require them to be uploaded to the Springboard site. Should I just sit tight?

Say NCI asked you for your address without an Eircode and then you go to apply to TUD and they ask for your address with an Eircode, the "Eircode field" will highlight to be filled down the right hand side.

Im just wondering does the the second course I applied for do they get my CV and statement too? I was only going to apply for 1 course and my personal statement is geared towards that course and not so much the second course I applied for.

We'll see what happens, I'm happy to have heard something at least.

LYIT is online and DBS is evenings in the college. Have read a few things online about LYIT that aren't great

Tallaght is closer to me than dbs and i wanted a more general computer course over a specific software development course. Though i would prefer eventually to go into programming. I am new to a computer course and would like a greater understanding before i focus on a particular area.im hoping the UDEMY can provide me with more software training when i get a job in computing. i read on this thread that the TU computing course in Blanchardstown wasnt the best organised, and i have heard DBS is very good as its private and thus people expect more. also id prefer to attend the college than do it online as humans are social animals and nice to talk to other students face to face to see what they think.
bennyx_o wrote: » I'm somewhat opposite - want a course tailored to Software Development. Had a look around and can't see much on what's covered in the LYIT course, and DBS is close to work so it'll likely be the one I go for.
