Unsure of your next steps after school?

We’re delighted to be showcasing Further Education and Training (FET) pathways for school leavers at WorldSkills Ireland and The Irish Times Higher Options 2026 this September.

Make sure to visit our stands at both events which are taking place from Wednesday, 16th September - Friday, 18th September in the RDS, Dublin. We’re also arranging a number of careers talks during both events where learners and graduates across post-Leaving Certificate courses (PLCs), apprenticeships and tertiary bachelor’s degrees will share their experiences of FET pathways outside of the points race.

➡️ Tickets need to be bought in advance to ensure entry on the day. Secure your place for WorldSkills Ireland here https://bit.ly/3Ua9LR5 and Higher Options 2026 here https://bit.ly/487rttg. We're looking forward to seeing you there!

Today is a big day! We’d like to wish all Leaving Cert students the very best of luck as you collect your results. 🍀

Whatever your results, remember that there is more than one pathway to a successful future. Your Leaving Cert results are just one step in your journey; they do not define your potential or your future career. If the CAO route isn’t right for you, or you’re looking for a more practical, career-focused alternative, Further Education and Training could be the perfect next step.

At Carlow Institute of Further Education and Training, we offer 70+ courses across a wide range of areas, providing opportunities to develop practical skills, gain valuable experience and progress towards your chosen career or further study. We are looking forward to meeting our new students in September!

🍀 Best of luck today from everyone at Carlow Institute!
