Representatives from the CAO, universities, colleges, further education institutions, Solas and educational bodies from all over the world will be available to discuss career choices with second-level school students at this year’s Higher Options and WorldSkills Ireland 2026.
The conference is the starting point for many students as they begin to plan the next phase of their educational journey. It brings together representatives of institutions and organisations offering students information on almost every conceivable educational progression opportunity available in Ireland and abroad.
Representatives will be available at their stands in the exhibition hall to speak with the students individually.
Talks will also be delivered by specialist speakers in three auditoriums over the course of the three hours of each morning and afternoon session. Students are encouraged to consult the timetable in advance. Each student will have their own interests and can attend a wide range of talks accordingly.
Some students who have already identified specific vocational pathways as possible options for themselves should attend the talks in those disciplines.
