Applying for the Hdip in education (Postgrad in Education now)

jbyrne20092010

Hi,

Im thinking of applying for the Postgrad Dip in Education to enable me teach secondary level. The closing date for applications is 1st December (Tuesday coming 5.15pm).

I havn't got an application form in hardcopy, so I was going to apply through www.pac.ie. However, I have read they want a copy of my 3rd year results (I am in my final year now), but I am wondering how I get my results to them? Do I need to apply online and then post off my results qith a letter quoting my application form number so the application and results match up?

Also, is there any other information I need to provide the pac other than what I put on the online application form and a hardcopy of my exam results?

Just thinking, If I get a hardcopy of my exam results, could I scan them and send them to pac via email?

Thanks.

If you are in your final year then I am fairly certain they want your second year results. They should be quite easy to get in your college

Maybe the OP is doing a 4 year course

You just ask for them, they give it to you, and you post it in.
You have a few extra days but still, get cracking.

If you don't have all the info send the application anyway, they can always send it back to you. If you don't want to do that remember you can submit a late application some time in Jan, it will be 120 instead of 80

Can we apply for any college (in PAC) that late? Or do just some accept last applications?

And woop, there are jobs, just depends on your subjects. English and History teachers will probably spend the next 7 years teaching English in South Korea.

Jobs seem to depend a lot on subjects to be honest, also your ability to move. Certain parts of the country easier to find work in. Still worth doing is that is what you want to do.

You are applying to PAC not the colleges, so you can apply that late. Not to Trinity though.
