Developing Employability Skills

Year 14 students participated in an Employability Masterclass facilitated by Maeve McParland and Deborah King from Newry and Mourne Enterprise Agency focusing on developing their employability and self-marketing skills within the recruitment process.  The masterclass was followed by individual interviews where the students were able to demonstrate their skills and pick up important advice from a range of local business personnel.
