A focus on higher education objective: Post-Baccalaureate Studies

The Department of Education, Youth and Sport is stepping up its activities to promote post-Baccalaureate guidance, the aim being to support high school students with their higher education plans. The Academic Counselling and Education Resource Centre (CIEN) is a valuable partner, which supports educational advisory activities by providing information for school students.  Throughout the year, the CIEN is host to young people and their families and offers assistance with their training plans.

As last year, to build on this approach, it will offer special opening times on certain Saturdays, entitled "A Focus on …".

These day events are held at the CIEN's premises. They give high school children access to full, accurate information and are an opportunity for them to meet students and specialists who are invited to share their experience.
