The Leaving Certificate Applied is a two year Leaving Certificate available to students who wish to follow a practical programme with a strong practical and vocational emphasis. It is one of three Leaving Certificate options offered by the Department of Education.

Where a school is considering the introduction of Leaving Certificate Applied, an application for school support can be made at www.pdst.ie/schoolsupport.

Additional teaching support is approved to all schools that operate the Leaving Certificate Applied Programme.
