Certificate in Pre-University Marketing
This well-established programme is one of the best QQI Level 5 pre-university marketing courses in Dublin for students who wish to secure a 1st year place in a University Marketing degree. Covering a range of marketing related modules including: Marketing practice, Behavioural Studies, Economics and Digital Marketing, students graduate with the skills needed to progress to a 3rd Level business or marketing degree. Here’s what our students say:
“I genuinely couldn’t recommend Rathmines college enough. When I didn’t get the leaving cert points that I had hoped for, I had no idea how I was going to get into university, but after meeting all the tutors and staff in Rathmines, I knew I was in safe hands! There is such a community spirit around the college, all the staff are so supportive and welcoming, and they really do prioritise the students. The marketing course is so comprehensive, and it has already given me so many opportunities that otherwise would never have been possible. It really did confirm just how much I want to pursue a career in the business and marketing world. If you are in doubt, take the leap and enrol with Rathmines, I promise you won’t regret it!”
