January was another busy month in the Guidance Department at Presentation College. CAO deadline looming had us busy with our individual appointments working with students on their applications and DARE forms for some. We had representatives from @SETU, @CarlowCollege and @DCU presenting to our senior students. Sandeep Kumar, an engineer from MSD, spoke to our Transition Years as part of Junior Achievement Ireland. Students engaged well with Sandeep and will put his words into practice in their guidance classes over the next while. The KCETB Apprenticeship Expo held at Tyndall College was an opportunity for those seeking apprenticeships to meet employers and give in their CVs. Ms McCarthy was looking after the Sixth Years, ensuring they were fuelled for their mock exams. Click on the heading for more photos.
