    I'm currently in 5th year and recently decided that I would like to study Computer Science in College. Anyone know of anywhere in Dublin that offers Coding/Programming classes for beginners? Just something once or twice a week like.

    Try and look into CoderDojo. I don't know too much about it but it might be what you're looking for.

    If you wanted to try it online for free there's a great site called http://www.codecademy.com/

    They go through:

    HTML & CSS
    Javascript
    jQuery
    Python
    Ruby
    PHP

    Coder Dojo does offer courses for beginners but I think the age profile may be a bit younger than the OP.

    Maybe a DIT part time or evening course?

    There's a wealth of information online to get you started - really no need for you to be going and paying for courses. CodeAcademy has already been mentioned. Coursera is probably worth checking out too. Check out your local library for books on introduction to languages like Java and C. I'd also suggest you have a look at the Development Forum - lots of helpful info and advice there.
