Ba é an saineolaí gairmeacha clúiteach Brian Mooney an t-aoi speisialta ag an seimineár eolais/gréasáin, arna óstáil ag Barbara Ronayne, Bord Oideachais & Oiliúna Mhaigh Eo, Shligigh agus Liatroma (MSLETB).
“The feedback from the webinar was excellent from students, parents and guardians who found it an invaluable resource as they make their CAO choices,” said Pat Howley, Chairperson, Mayo Local Community Development Committee (LCDC) Education & Training Working Group, the event organisers.
“Brian was very generous with his time and expertise, as always, and he fielded a wide range of questions from viewers.”
“Ba iontach an t-aiseolas ón seimineár gréasáin ó dhaltaí, ó thuismitheoirí agus ó chaomhnóirí a d’airigh gur acmhainn an-luachmhar é agus iad ag déanamh a gcuid roghanna CAO,” a dúirt Pat Howley, Cathaoirleach, Grúpa Oibre Oideachais & Oiliúna Choiste Forbartha Pobail Áitiúil Mhaigh Eo (LCDC), eagraithe na himeachta.
“Bhí Brian an-fhlaithiúil lena chuid ama agus a shaineolais, mar a bhí i gcónaí, agus d’fhreagair sé raon leathan ceisteanna ón lucht féachana.”
