StudentVolunteer.ie is a national platform that connects students with a wide range of volunteering across Ireland. UCC is a member university, which means all UCC students can register, explore roles and log their volunteering activity through the platform. From a university wide perspective, the initiative is led by the UCC Careers Service and specifically the EmployAgility Awards, who support and promote student engagement in volunteering as a valuable part of personal and professional development. They work to ensure that volunteering is recognised as an important contribution to students' growth, helping you to build skills, confidence and experience beyond the classroom.
