FIRST DAY ORIENTATION
You will have your Induction Day before you start your course. This day introduces you to SEDA, rules, and visa tips, followed by a fantastic and useful free walking tour around Dublin City Centre.
This takes place on the Friday before the start of new classes, at 1 PM. During induction:
- 1 - We’ll show you around the school and inform you of the facilities available (renewed students will have already done this).
- 2 - You’ll meet the Director of Studies.
- 3 - You’ll meet the ADOS, who will give a short presentation about the College.
- 4 - We’ll tell you about the school rules.
- 5 - We’ll email you a copy of the student handbook.
- 6 - You’ll learn about our Health & Safety Policy.
- 7 - We’ll tell you the rules and policies we have for attendance (the Irish government has rules about this, too).
- 8 - You’ll meet the student liaison officer and someone in the school who speaks your first language. We have people at SEDA who speak Spanish, Russian, French, Portuguese, Bengali, Italian and Irish.
- 9 - You will do a speaking placement test.
- 10 - You will be notified by email of your level, class time, teacher, and the name of your classroom. Please ensure we have your correct email address.
- 11 - We’ll give you the timetable for your class and tell you when your course will start and should finish.
- 12 - We’ll tell you the date of your final IELTS or Cambridge exam.
- 13 - You will be shown where you can buy your New English File Course Book.
