About us

Creedons College is Ireland’s premier adult education provider for courses in the animal care industry.

Courses have been carefully designed to meet the needs of learners. Our aim is to provide learners with an education based on the most up to date science, while also taking the busy lifestyle of our learners into consideration to ensure a high success rate along with a manageable and enjoyable curriculum.

The priority here at Creedons College is to give students the knowledge, experience, and confidence to begin their new careers as animal care professionals immediately after graduating from our institution.

Ireland is crying out for canine professionals and there is NO better feeling than surrounding yourself with furry companions and calling it work!

Assessment

You will have an online exam to take. This can be taken only once so please ensure you have fully revised this full course before beginning the online exam. You will only have a very short amount of time to take the exam, so you must answer the questions immediately, there will not be time to review your notes while taking this exam.

 

Upon completion of this course you should hopefully have been bitten by the study bug!
