To access our back catalogue of webinars, I would recommend the Basic Individual plan at €25pa. School Plans also exist, with Premium giving FREE coupon code for ALL your school community – parents & students to sign up.

1. Each webinar looks at preparation over summer 2024 and beyond with discussion on:
   1. Seek out relevant work experience or work shadow a relevant professional.
   2. Talk with students in courses of interest to you and/or people who work in your field of interest.
   3. Visit campuses, lots of campuses have some access to the public. Student Liaison Officers are available to contact and book individual campus tours over the summer. Why not make a booking.
   4. Especially if you are considering going to Northern Ireland/UK or Europe, organise a few days to visit the campus and city.
   5. Research thoroughly all courses of interest from 1^st to final year on ALL courses, looking in more detail on what is taught in each module ( there is more than just the module title!)
   6. Familiarity with deadline dates, application procedures
   7. If you are still unsure after your research and by end of 6^th year, look at a gap year, there is no rush and/or do a 1 year PLC course to explore interests that you may not yet be convinced of. Retention rate of students who do a 1 year PLC is 100%!! (check out our webinar in March on PLC Route or May on Apprenticeship Options)

1. I want to share some news with you all, I recently was informed that Synergy Careers was nominated and subsequently awarded an Irish Enterprise Award 2024 for the Best Career Guidance Services. Thank you to all the Guidance Counsellors for supporting me and on all the positive feedback I have received from you. It was such an honour to get this recognition.
