Clon Ag College has courses for all levels

UP TO a dozen training courses at every level from 80 Hour Farm Management to degree level are now being offered at Clonakilty Agricultural College, making it a vital Co Cork location for agricultural training and rural development.

The core courses are the FETAC Advanced Certificate in Agriculture to level 5, the FETAC Advanced Certificate in Agriculture to level 6, and the FETAC Advanced Certificate in Dairy Herd Management.

A FETAC Adult Advanced Certificate in Agriculture course has recently been introduced, specifically to suit part-time farmers. Instruction will take place at night and at weekends, and some modules will be presented through video conference link to BIM Castletownbere to help students travelling long distances from that area of Co Cork.
