Diploma in Oracle Programming

This is an excellent hands-on Oracle Programming course. I had very little PL/SQL experience and I was a little bit nervous when I enroled, but the trainer’s knowledge of the subject matter and willingness to help were impeccable. This, matched with the very relevant course materials, ensured the course was a big success. I would certainly recommend this course to anyone interested in starting an Oracle Programming career.

I would like to say thank you to my tutor for the help and support given to me on the recent Diploma in Oracle PL/SQL Programming course.  I found the course both challenging, rewarding and finally a very valuable skillset to have in the IT industry today. At all times I received encouragement and support throughout the course and overall found it to be interesting learning.

Diploma in Java Programming

When I searched for “Java course” on Google, 51 million results were thrown back at me. Needless to say, I was a bit lost if not completely apprehensive. But I toughed it out and spent the next hour diving through the sea of Java courses. I'm not entirely sure why I selected Fitzwilliam Institute’s online Diploma in Java and Database Programming. Perhaps it was the professional look and feel of their website. Perhaps it was the course information they presented. Whatever the reason, I'm certainly glad I did the Java course at Fitzwilliam Institute. Java was completely new to me, so I felt I'd need a lot of guidance and support to help me through; and Fitzwilliam Institute did just that. The course materials were well structured and easy to follow. The practical exercises, whilst challenging, were interesting and enjoyable. And the tutors were always responsive and helpful, which was great for me, as I was unashamedly low on motivation and confidence. I'm standing tall amongst my IT colleagues now, because not only have I equipped myself with Object Oriented (Java) programming knowledge, but I can also now confidently get my hands dirty with mySQL databases. I would highly recommend this course to anyone who feels a bit light-headed at the mere mention of the word Java or Object Oriented. This course will definitely give you a healthy dose of practical knowledge in Java and mySQL database. Thank you, Fitzwilliam Institute!

I look forward to a new career and I thank Fitzwilliam for helping me kick start it.

When I first found the Fitzwilliam Institute course online I was delighted, but still a bit skeptical. It ended up being absolutly the best thing i've ever done. Amazing, skilled, and professional tutors, all of whom we were priveledged to meet. Course was all practical aswell which meant every class was like going to your event management company and we were given such brilliant real life examples. It was so worth it, i travelled up and down from Galway twice a week. Met some lovely people who I hope to keep in contact with.

As a PR and marketing professional in the sports industry, the Fitzwilliam Institute's Digital Marketing Diploma has really helped me across the range of communications disciplines.

Diploma in Event Management

I researched Diploma Events Management Courses, this seemed the best , and it was an online course. I learnt how to put together a plan for organising an event, and how to plan this from budgetary, advertising, registration, sourcing the most cost effective for the event, disability access, registration etc to the actual event taking place and evaluation meeting after the event,  providing me with confidence and ability to undertake any event. This course benefitted me enormously with my job, as I am now the event’s organiser for my team. I would recommend the course to others. I was able to complete the course while still working, it fitted into my work schedule, as you complete the modules in your time, it is then sent to be marked and comments are made of how to improve each module, and then finally submit the final portfolio to the examiner for your final grade. I passed with a distinction grade. Natalie Wilmot, National Implementation Service

I pretty much do everything i love on the internet and I always wanted to create. So I joined the online diploma for iOS application development course and i was worried that i would disappoint but then it was just too cool not to talk about. I mean, I AM MAKING APPLICATIONS! I would highly recommend this course to anyone seeking for a career in app development. Everything top to bottom was flawless explaining bit by bit, leading to the bigger result. I am so happy for making this choice, and I would once again recommend this. It helped me understand various perspectives of coding it taught me patience, and eventually helped me make a reputation out of it and soon hopefully become a coder. Thank you Fitzwilliam Institute Group!

Postgraduate Diploma in Public Relations with Arranged Work Experience

In 2014 I decided to go back to college after a few months of travelling and it was the best decision I ever made. After graduating with a Bachelor of Commerce degree from NUIG I wanted to specialise and looked at the PR & Event management course in Fitzwilliam Institute. The lectures were incredible in this course and got me thinking outside the box every day. Zoe Healy, one of the lectures, set us an assignment of setting up a blog and I started http://www.pureirishsugar.com  that day. Last year I won Best Beauty Blogger at the Aussie Hair Awards and now write a second blog called 'Where to next darling..?' which is all about travel. Along with having two blogs I work full time as part of the PR & Marketing team for Benefit Cosmetics Ireland. Going back to college and studying with Fitzwilliam Institute was one of the best decisions I have made and has shaped my career. Through that course I made incredible friends who still all work in the PR industry - Kate Kelly, Benefit Cosmetics Ireland.

The Postgraduate Diploma in Event Management with Public Relations gives you a good understanding of the Events industry. The most beneficial part of the course for me was planning a real life charity event. This alone gives you great insight into how much time, effort and planning goes into an event. Additionally, the 3 month work placement is a vital part as you are able to get your foot in the door and get some hands on experience. Without completing this course I may not have the job I have today!

Rachel Clynes

Postgraduate Diploma in PR with Arranged Work Experience

Fitzwilliam Institute Postgraduate Diploma is a great gateway to the world of PR. The course is extremely relevant with current industry case studies and topical PR trends at the forefront of every lecture. It’s so reassuring to know that your lecturers are industry professionals, meaning that every course topic is approached with authentic knowledge of the subject and first-hand experience in mind. The standout aspect of the course for me was the arranged work placement. The placement challenges you to put your knowledge to the test whilst growing and learning in a real working environment and is paramount in developing a true understanding of the ins and outs of PR. The experience gained whilst on work experience plays such a pivotal role in your approach to the exams and perhaps even more importantly, the road to future employment. I did my placement at Elevate PR and was lucky enough to be hired once i finished my internship. I'm happily still working away at Elevate PR as an Account Executive.
