National Traveller MABS (Money Advice and Budgeting Service) is a MABS company dedicated to supporting members of the Travelling Community in Ireland. The publication “Financial Guide to College” was developed to encourage more young Travellers to explore college education when leaving post-primary education. The content is also relevant to every student who is considering third-level education and provides information on fees, grants and supports available and how to access them.
Career Connections is a collection pre-recorded videos based on the three academic disciplines within Trinity College Dublin:
Students that appear in these videos are a part of Trinity Access Programmes. These students discuss subjects needed for entry into their college courses, alternative entry routes as well as career opportunities available to them upon completion of their degree. This video aims to encourage the participation of under-represented groups at higher education but also aims to raise awareness of degrees that don’t put you on a direct path to a certain career. For example: European Studies, Philosophy, Languages and many more!
