Staff representing Youthreach will visit the Jyvaskyla Consortium in Finland to study the Finnish approach to supporting students in transition from Lower Secondary education to upper Secondary education, through the Career Start Programme. They will also study and make comparisons between Irish and Finnish vocational education provision. Twenty Four staff will participate in total.

In the long term the visits may have an impact on the development of more international activity for the organisation and on strategy and policy changes regarding the delivery of vocational education in Kildare, Wicklow and Ireland.
