In carrying out our curriculum
our job is to harness the energies of our young people and mould
a spirit of competitiveness, enterprise and innovativeness so
that they can adopt and manage the ever quickening changes
imposed on them. We try to create a vision for our students, to
help them seek solutions and not be afraid of the problems
associated with them.
The Training Centre is a huge
help for the development of the College and its students. The
Video-Conferencing Centre is a seat of communication of West
Cork with institutions and conferences world wide. The suite of
computers help students, farmers, and business people to develop
competencies to be better managers.
Finally our recreation area
develop a fitness and sense of well being, so important for
mental alertness and character development. Our suite of courses
gives a qualification, which enables one to follow a good career
in commerical farming, farm management or agri-business. Ultimately
our aim is better farming, better business and better living.
