It will, I hope, give a comprehensive description of all the activities of the college and will help you make an informed decision about your future. Our college has changed considerably in recent years in order to meet the challenges that present themselves due to the introduction of new technology in the workplace and changed economic conditions. New programmes have been introduced and our facilities have been upgraded to the highest standards to meet these new demands. We have excellent computer facilities, student support services and extra curricular programmes. The college is very proud of achieving the status of a Green Campus in 2013, becoming one of only a handful of further and higher education institutes in Ireland to have done so. We have always been recognised for our links with employers. We are continuing this association by ensuring that our students have the skills that are required in the business environment today. For the past eight years the college has undertaken a highly successful work exchange programme with ROC Amsterdam. Students also have the opportunity to apply for an exciting entrepreneurship internship programme in Exeter, UK. Ballsbridge College is open and welcoming and each year we have an energetic and enthusiastic group of students. If you are a school leaver, an adult returning to education or an international student in Ireland, there is a course in the college to suit you.

  • Placing the Red, Yellow and Green Colour Scheme Used for the Past Few Years
    VOLUME 47 SEPTEMBER 2009 STAMP SCENE Post Office branding A growing number of Post Office branches are being re-branded with the new red and white livery of Post Office Ltd, re- placing the red, yellow and green colour scheme used for the past few years. The change is also to be reflected in the colour of stamp vending ma- chines, which are reverting to the more tradition- al red colour instead of the relatively short-lived turquoise scheme. The first sites to have the new overlays fitted to the outdoor 'Thomas Automat- ics 6002S' stamp vending machines (SVMS) were Wakefield, completed at 09:57 on 18 November 2008 and Pontefract, which followed at 10:58 on the same date. None of the internal stamp vend- ing machines, which are also in turquoise, have so far been altered back to red and I do not have any information as to whether conversions will be carried out. Stamp vending machine in red-and-white Post Office livery Irish SVMs The Irish Post Office is now using the same Thomas Automatics model of stamp vend- ing machine as found outside some 500 UK Post Office branches, but they are generally coloured green in keeping with An Post's corporate brand- ing scheme. The one exception is at GPO Dublin in O'Connell Street, where the SVM has a special antique metal bronze front to match the nearby inset post boxes. Irish stamp specialist Brian Warren kindly pro- vided details of these machines, together with a photograph of the Tallaght location to share with Bulletin readers.
