The College and Career Companion: Navigating the CAO System in Ireland

Navigating the world of college and careers can be overwhelming. However, there is help at hand, and this is the main reason we wrote this book.

“The more I research, the more confused I become”

Does this sound familiar to you? If you’re feeling lost or unsure about which career path to take, you’re not alone.

So many people are saying to us how difficult it has become to research and find career information. Even though we have more information than ever before, the reality is that people are just more confused than ever!

Why We Wrote the Book

Our focus has always been to cut through the confusion and layers of never ending data and provide students with a methodology that helps them find the information they need. Armed with this accurate knowledge, students are then able to make more informed decisions regarding their future.

Choosing the right path after the Leaving Certificate can feel overwhelming but it doesn’t have to be.  Whether you’re unsure of what direction to take or already have a career in mind, this book is your go-to guide for turning ambition into action. With our passion for student success and a deep understanding of the challenges faced, we have crafted this book to serve as a roadmap for post primary school students and their parents/guardians.

This book gives a comprehensive and evidence based guide to help the student, and all those involved in supporting the student, to understand all the options available to them, allowing for more informed and individualistic decision making for that young person.
