Foreign Language Upskilling Courses for Primary School Teachers

We are pleased to announce a new suite of fully-funded courses, developed in conjunction with PPLI/Languages Connect and the Department of Education and Youth, which aim to offer Primary School teachers in Ireland the chance to upskill in a modern foreign language.

Starting with Spanish, UCC will be running a series of short and dynamic 8-week courses, combining weekly online classes (16 hours in total) with two on-campus Saturday workshops (4 hours each, in person).

The levels on offer (subject to numbers) are:

If you are unsure which level is best suited to you, please try the Cervantes Institute Level Test. The workshops will take place on UCC campus on Saturdays, starting at 11am. Lunch will be provided. Participants will be presented with an official certificate on completion of the course.
