The Access Programme

Take the first step!

The Access Programme provides assistance to students from DEIS schools and Youthreach Centres in Cork City and County to become familiar with a day in the life of a student in Further Education through Course Shadowing.

In Course Shadowing at Cork College of FET, Morrison’s Island Campus, prospective students gain a valuable insight into both their chosen course and what it is like to study at Cork College of FET, Morrison’s Island, Cork. It provides information, advice and support to students who are interested in a particular course. As well as getting to shadow the classes of their chosen course they have the opportunity of meeting subject teachers and sampling the facilities that the College has to offer.

On the morning that the students arrive at the College to do Course Shadowing they are met, made feel at ease and introduced to the College. This is a very important stage as most students are very nervous and apprehensive when they first come into the college. An itinerary for their time in the College is given to students who are then escorted to their first class. The subject teacher of all their scheduled classes will be aware of their arrival, they will be introduced and welcomed into the class. From the positive feedback from students, schools and centres, it is evident that students who have done Course Shadowing are much more relaxed about progressing further in their education. Going to College is not as daunting as when they first arrived.
