IMPORTANT:
Please note:
 BN417, BN419 and BN421 are specialist courses that might be of interest to some
level 7 graduates who have a particular interest in entrepreneurship
 Any student whose nationality is outside the EU may be required to pay tuition fees for
attending full-time academic programmes at the Institute. The tuition fee for the
academic year 2009/2010 (full-time courses) is €9886.00 per annum, in addition to an
annual student services fee.
 Applicants who have obtained a qualification outside the Republic of Ireland or
the UK, are requested to obtain a letter from Qualifications Recognition
(www.qualrec.ie) comparing their foreign qualification with an Irish qualification.
Qualifications Recognition is the Irish centre that provides an information service that
helps individuals compare their foreign qualifications with Irish qualifications on the
Irish National Framework of Qualifications (www.nfq.ie).
ITB regards this information as extremely important to verify the level of your award
and enable the Institute to speedily make a determination on your eligibility for the
course you have applied.
The qualification recognition service is free of charge, however assessment of a
qualification may take a few weeks so it is advisable to apply at least
3 months before the start of the course.
Qualification Recognition can be contacted on 01 8871500 or www.qualrec.ie
