Internationalisation Register

The National Qualifications Authority of Ireland, on behalf of the Department of Education and Skills, administers the Internationalisation Register. The Register lists the education and training programmes approved for the purpose of access to employment by students who are citizens from outside the EU/EEA and Switzerland.

From 1 March 2010, the National Qualifications Authority of Ireland (NQAI) assumed responsibility for administering the Internationalisation Register. From that date, all applications for inclusion of a programme on the register are processed by the NQAI. Programmes already included on the register as of 1 March 2010 are unaffected – they will continue to be on the register, but any notifications of changes should be made directly to the NQAI after that date.

Eligibility criteria and details of how to apply are available here .

The Register will continue to be updated on a monthly basis. The following is a link to the current Register.
