Testimonials

My daughter is currently studying for her Leaving Certificate. She is a bright girl with a good Junior Cert but had no idea of what career she wanted to follow. I arranged an assessment for her with Ann. Following her first meeting and an initial assessment of interest, a career path became clear. Now that she has made a career choice, she is motivated and working hard towards her goal. Ann worked through the whole CAO application process with us and ensured that even if she does not get the points required initially there are alternate routes available. This is such relief and takes so much pressure off both of us.

I went to see Ann Heffron because I thought I knew what career I wanted but wasn't completely sure. Ann really helped me to think it through and I realised that there were a lot of other courses out there that I did not even know about. I now know exactly what I want to do and how to get there. Thank you.

We recently had cause to contact Ann for some truly expert advice regarding subject choice for a student entering 5th year. Having previously used Ann's career advice services with our 2 older kids, we can only say that Ann's advice was first class delivered to both the student and the parent. From the first contact to the subject review to the course requirements to the carreer advice Ann was truly student centered focusing on interests and aptitude at all times. As parents we can only say that Ann reassuring advice was key to our kids making the correct decisions for their futures. You won't regret making use of Ann's services. Thanks again Ann.
