Students may take single modules from one of these programmes. If they complete 4 modules (20 Credits), they will be awarded an Maynooth University Certificate (Level 7) in either Culture & Society (Community Studies programme) OR People Place and Heritage (Local Studies programme).

 

If participants wish to progress further, they may transfer their credits into the relevant part time degree programme (a Bachelor of Arts degree requires 180 credits).
