Celebrating Going To College And Showcasing Local Role Models
College Awareness Week is a big operation. Throughout the year, our important work continues, but by coming together, we put college on the agenda for the whole country for one entire week – 18th to 24th November 2024.
18th – 24th November 2024
College Awareness Week is a national event across Ireland. It aims to help students learn about the experiences they could have at college and the subjects they may want to study.
All students can benefit from this week, but it’s particularly important for students who may not have considered further education before or may not know many people who have been to college.
