    Yeah seems to be either Fridays or Mondays for our course which runs in kildalton. I know I was in the same boat in my case just felt sucking it up for the year was worth it and if I didn't do it now I'd keep putting it off!

    Cant get over that the collages dont carry out the courses at the weekends.

    So lads I'm just trying to get my head around this. Only have a level 5 in a non agricultural area. So can I apply at all?

    So full time is what Monday to Friday and it costs €1000?

    If I do part time distance it costs €2100 and I'd still need to take 30 days off work in the year?

    The old fella was trying to get me to finish it by September 2016 for the young farmers scheme, which can't be done as applications are closed now anyway. Or is it I can have my interest in foing one rrgistered by then?

    You need to commit to starting the course by 30 September 2016. We offer the course full time over 2 years in our college. There are places available in Level 5 starting in September. If you have a level 5 and experience you can Go into level 6. The cost is 100 if you have a medical card and 350 of you don't. You can also get the student grant. 1600-3200 per year. Both are 4 days a week.

    We have a part time course staring in September 2015 this is full. We are taking applications for September 2016 and this course costs 1990.

    Call 09825241 for more information.

    I thought Teagasc was the only body running green cert courses but obviously not from reading the above posts. It would be fierce handy if another body set up a course part time on the weekend around the country it would get great uptake. Anyone know any alternatives to Teagasc like above in Cork?
