The MTU Business Academy has more than 30 professional and executive, part-time courses designed to help you achieve your career goal. All courses are QQI accredited on the National Framework of Qualifications.
The MTU Business Academy has earned a deserved reputation among the emerging and established professionals. It has helped them to set and meet ambitious and rewarding career goals.
Pat Culhane, MTU Business Academy manager, said: “I regularly witness capable, experienced professionals that want to upskill or reskill, but are not aware of the range of the options available to them.
“Our flexible courses are designed to fit into your busy lifestyle, allowing you to advance your education and career without sacrificing your current commitments,” he added.
“The programmes are part-time, delivered in the evening or at the weekend. Some programmes run fully online. Other programmes involve a mix of online and on-campus delivery. Programmes are not just for people in Cork and Kerry. We are seeing an increase in students from other parts of Ireland and overseas.
“We have courses for those returning to higher education and those starting out. Come along to our open evening to meet and chat with lecturers from each course. We’re confident that you’ll get a sense of the friendly, caring culture here in MTU, ahead of courses starting from September.”
