Exam/Christmas period Posted: Mon, November 30, 2009

Note that we will not be scheduling interviews during the exams. 

 

Phase-over Plan – next few weeks:

Decision Date:  Monday January 11 is the last day for you to make a decision on what you are going to do during the flexible term.  If you do not have a work placement position on that date you need to let us know what other option you are taking; you will need to return to college on Monday January 11 and start attending flexible semester lectures for New Venture Initiative or College and Community.  If we do not hear from you by that date we will assume you have opted for College and Community.  We strongly suggest that you investigate either a work placement or a community project in your local area over the Christmas shut-down period. 

Last Day for interviews:   There will be no interviews conducted after Friday 8th January unless the interview was arranged prior to January 8th.  We will continue trying to find placements up to that date.  You will need to keep checking your e-mails over the holiday season and through to January 8th.   There may be positions posted and interviews arranged during the holiday period.   We will continue to issue this update to you and you should continue to access the work placement website.

If you are thinking of changing to College and Community, the contact person is Corinne Power-O’Mahony: CPower-OMahony@wit.ie  Note that if you switch to College and Community before Christmas you may have a choice as to what community project you secure.  If you wait until January 11 (start of semester 2) then you may be given a project without a choice.
