LCA

Leaving Certificate Applied (LCA) is a two-year alternative to the traditional Leaving Certificate. It emphasises practical skills, vocational training and real-world applications of learning.
Key aspects of LCA:
    • Focus on practical skills and vocational training:
      The LCA emphasizes hands-on learning and preparing students for the workforce.
    • Work experience:
      Students are required to complete a minimum amount of work experience throughout the two-year program.
The program is structured around modules and students accumulate credits for successful completion. LCA is primarily assessed through coursework and projects throughout the two years, rather than a final exam. The program aims to develop students' self-esteem, self-knowledge, and responsibility.
