Several Information talks for parents will be held on Wednesday evening, the 22nd of November also in the MTU Kerry Sports Academy.

Mary Dowling, PRO of Kerry Branch of the Institute of Guidance Counsellors said, “We are delighted to be part of a nationwide campaign to promote the importance of post-secondary education. There are lots of options out there and College Awareness Week encourages people of all ages to consider further education as part of their future. The Careers Fair gives students an ideal opportunity to meet representatives from the colleges, pick up information and have any queries answered. The Information Talks will provide parents with the specific information they need to support their son/daughter in making this important decision and to help guide them through the HEAR and DARE schemes.”

CAW aims to inspire and inform all students about the importance of having a post-secondary education plan. It advocates for students to have the choice to pursue the course best suited to their interests, abilities and dreams, whether that is a FE qualification, an apprenticeship or a university degree.
