Most students come to Queen's after their A' Levels or Degree. The 6 week IT courses attract people from a wider range of ages. This course also appeals to people already in work who wish to update their skills, or those looking for a change in direction. In January 2001 we are introducing a new course for mature students. There is not a strict dress code at the College.
Students can wear whatever they feel comfortable in.
This may vary. The maximum number per group is 15 but a typical class is 10-12 people. Keyboarding is more important than ever. Most of us spend a considerable part of our working day at a keyboard, so being able to touch-type competently will save you time on a daily basis. For those of you who may wish to temp at some time, this is the key skill.
