Purpose
Since 1991, when the last of its secondary school students finished their Leaving Certificate examinations, the College changed its focus, running both full time day courses, and a night school. Today, the College offers hundreds of courses across a range of topics including computing, business studies, office administration, applied languages, health studies, beauty therapy, complementary therapy, childcare and Montessori, fashion, travel and tourism, adult Leaving Certificate and general interest courses. Many of the courses offered by the college result in a formal qualification, such as a qualification recognized by Accounting Technicians Ireland, or a Certified Public Accountant.

Famous quotes containing the word purpose:
“In the present civil war it is quite possible that Gods purpose is something different from the purpose of either party.”
—Abraham Lincoln (18091865)
“In using the strong hand, as now compelled to do, the government has a difficult duty to perform. At the very best, it will by turns do both too little and too much. It can properly have no motive of revenge, no purpose to punish merely for punishments sake. While we must, by all available means, prevent the overthrow of the government, we should avoid planting and cultivating too many thorns in the bosom of society.”
—Abraham Lincoln (18091865)
“Rule of criticism: only attend to the shape, and the purpose will manifest itself.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
