To apply for any of our programs, simply visit the Kerry College website and complete the online application process using our FETCHCOURSES system. If you haven't signed up for a FETCH account yet, don't worry - it's free and only needs to be done once.

For progression-focused courses, applicants are placed on a waiting list, with places typically offered based on the date of application. However, an increasing number of these courses now require admissions interviews or portfolio submissions. For employment-focused courses, an admissions interview is required, and places are offered based on a weighted scoring system. Additional requirements such as trainability tests, medical assessments, and Garda vetting may also be necessary.

If you're interested in an apprenticeship, please note that it is a three-way contract of employment between you, your employer, and SOLAS. On-the-job and off-the-job training are provided in phases. The first step in securing an apprenticeship is finding a job with an approved apprentice employer. For more information, visit www.apprenticeship.ie or contact our Apprenticeship Services team.

At Kerry College, we are committed to providing quality education and training opportunities that lead to successful careers. Join us on this transformative journey and unlock your full potential.
