SEDA College Cork

SEDA College is a private English language school in Ireland, operated by SEDA (Skills & Enterprise Development Academy) Ltd. Its Cork campus opened in 2023 at Clarke's Bridge House on Hanover Street, in the heart of Cork city centre on the island between the channels of the River Lee. The building has bright classrooms with city views, a study area and shared spaces for group work.

The Hanover Street campus

The school is at Clarke’s Bridge House, Hanover Street. The school welcomes adult learners. Cork is an Eaquals Accredited Member centre, accredited in 2024, and a registered Trinity College London ISE examination centre. Classes use English only, mix nationalities where possible, and are capped at sixteen students, with sixty-minute lessons.

English and exam preparation

Adult learners can follow General English, a long-term General English 25-week programme, IELTS Preparation, Trinity ISE examination preparation and 50+ Senior Group options. The college also runs CertTESOL teacher training. Students comparing a general course with Trinity ISE or IELTS preparation should first check which examination their next institution accepts. The longer General English programme is a separate option for someone who wants sustained study in Cork.
