UCC Guidance Counsellor Conference

4 Oct 2022

On Tuesday 4 October, we were delighted to welcome over 130 Guidance Counsellor colleagues back to campus for our annual Guidance Counsellor Conference. Deputy President and Registrar Professor Stephen Byrne opened proceedings in Devere Hall and spoke about UCC's steadfast commitment to the UN's 17 Sustainable Development Goals and our pledge to Leave No One Behind. In preparation for the advent of the new Leaving Certificate subject in Climate Action and Sustainability, which comes on stream in September 2024, the afternoon CPD session focussed on UCC's sustainability journey and accolades, including a presentation by UCC's Sustainability Officer, Dr Maria Kirrane and an interactive Climate Journey exercise.
