The primary aim of the Advance Centre is to provide short, flexible, and industry-aligned courses and to provide learners with highly specialised, fully accredited and quality assured upskilling opportunities at university level.

It is aimed at professional learners seeking to upskill in a flexible and cost-effective way with options ranging from individual modules to full programmes. 

A key goal of the centre is to support upskilling for professional learners seeking flexible study options alongside full-time students. And it offers a wide range of industry relevant, QQI accredited modular and full course options (QQI Levels 6-9) in Digital Transformation.

There are numerous study options available to students and professionals wishing to upskill, which include face to face, online and blended delivery, with courses designed and taught by our leading university partners and academic faculty in UCD, ATU and TU Dublin.

The accredited courses are highly relevant to the evolving and changing needs of the workplace, covering a vast area of digital transformation in Engineering.

Below is a selection of some of the excellent engineering course options that are available:

Selection of courses in Engineering Project Management and Engineering Operations Management

The array of short, flexible, and industry-aligned courses not only allow learners to upskill in highly specialised areas, but they also earn credits in the form of ECTS (European Credit Transfer and Accumulation System) which are globally recognised all over the world.

You also have the benefit of choosing and selecting multiple universities and receive a selection of awards from each as you can combine, and tailor make your own study experience by choosing various modules and full programmes across all three of our partners.

There are so many flexible ways to study, and Advance Centre is here to help and guide you through the process, the model of not having to commit to a full degree and have the option to choose short modules and Microcredentials, makes the decision to return to learning much easier and more manageable as you can study part-time and balance your studies with other commitments.

You also have the option to use what you have learnt towards recognition of prior learning towards other programmes you may wish to pursue in the future.

Why is Advance Centre encouraging potential students to return to learning?

There has never been a better time to return to education as the offerings by the Advance Centre are so heavily aligned to the changing and evolving needs of business and industry and multi-sector applicable.

Our flexible study options allow learners to upskill in an agile and cost-effective way, especially since the introduction of the HCI Pillar 3 learner fee subsidy, which allows learners to avail of an up to 80% discount on course fees.
