Choosing the right direction is one of the most important decisions a student will make (figuring out what to do and how to get there). Here is what a consultations with Michelle can cover:

  • Subject Choice — Michelle ensures students choose the right Leaving Cert subjects to keep career options open. Getting this right early matters more than most people realise.

  • CAO Guidance — Michelle maps out every route into a student’s chosen career — CAO courses, PLCs, tertiary programmes, HEAR and DARE schemes, apprenticeships, and international options via UCAS and EUNICAS. Every option is on the table.

  • Psychometric Assessment – Using career inventories and personality assessments, Michelle builds a clear picture of a student’s strengths, interests and motivations. These tools inform the conversation – they don’t replace it.

  • Career Exploration – For students who aren’t sure what direction they want to go, Michelle works through the options methodically until the right path becomes clear.

  • Personalised Written Report – Every consultation concludes with a detailed written report outlining the student’s strengths, recommended career directions, and a clear plan to get there.

“I now have every possible way into my career. I didn’t know some routes were even available. She helped me write my CAO choices list properly, covering all ways to achieve my goal. I would recommend everyone to get career guidance like this.”
