Career & Academic Guidance – Assessment For Leaving & Transition Year Students
Using Research on High Performance, Students Are Prepared for a Productive Transition Year, Leaving Certificate Success & Smart CAO Course Choices
Approach to Helping Students
Patrick begins his engagement with students by meeting with them and their parents, utilization of background information provided, student grades, current course selection and psychometric tests, to help students identify their academic and career goals.
For students preparing for the leaving certificate, Patrick helps them develop a clear sense of their academic strengths, academic focus, third level choices and career goals. Clients are walked through their CAO application, lowering all stakeholders stress levels during a tumultuous time!
Our student career assessment process leverages hands on doctoral research, professional experience across multiple industries and years of corporate coaching experience, to help secondary students navigate and prepare for the academic and professional opportunities ahead of them.
For Transition year students, Patrick guides them when deciding which leaving certificate courses to take in 5th & 6th Year. In addition, parents are helped plan and prepare for a successful transition year for students entering 4th year.
“Patrick at Career Insights has completely removed the stress of the CAO application process and has given my daughter the confidence to focus on the points she requires for University. It was a very positive experience and the feedback post consultation was also excellent.”

“My son attended Career Insights to get further guidance on choosing Leaving Certificate subjects. He had a fantastic informative experience with Patrick who gave him excellent advice not only on subject choices but also possible career paths which may best suit his personality and ambitions. Patrick highlighted my son’s strengths throughout the session in terms of future endeavours. No doubt my son is much clearer in terms of our initial decision of subject choice but also in terms of courses and career paths which could possibly best suit him in the future. Patrick put immense work into my son’s consultation . I would highly recommend this service.”
