There will be a number of talks on the day from professional bodies, including the professional accounting bodies the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA ) and CIMA. TTM Healthcare will address the gathering with a talk entitled “Going abroad with the view to coming home” aimed at nursing students and graduates.

Information will also be available about the range of post-graduate courses and funding in GMIT and other higher education institutions. St Angela’s College Sligo, Institute of Technology Sligo, NUI Galway, and the University of Limerick will be in attendance.
