UCD Short Courses for Adult Learners and Active Retired 2025-26

UCD Access and Lifelong Learning is delighted to offer a dynamic range of courses, thoughtfully designed to spark curiosity and inspire learning at every stage of life. In conjunction with National Heritage Week, we’ll be offering a series of engaging, short sessions serve as the perfect introduction to our 2025–26 Programme. We are also hosting an Information Session for Adult Learners who are considering their next steps in higher education, but would like more guidance on the right programme for them.

Whether you’ve never considered a university course before or it’s been some time since you were last in education, now is the ideal moment to take that exciting first step. With a welcoming and supportive environment, UCD invites you to explore your interests, expand your horizons, and rediscover the joy of learning.
