SHARING OPTIONS: On Wednesday 5 May, IBEC hosts TYTalks21, a virtual careers and education event for all TY students nationwide. In partnership with the National Association of Principals and Deputy Principals (NAPD), IBEC’s TYTalks21 virtual careers event aims to inspire and inform all 45,000 of Ireland’s transition year (TY) students. TYTalks21 has been specifically designed for TY students, with a focus on the future of work and the importance of following their career goals. The ongoing pandemic has seriously interrupted the work placements and development opportunities that Ireland’s TY students would have typically experienced, pre-COVID times. Those vital weeks and months often aid students in making better informed education and career choices.
