240 students from 46 schools in the region are being celebrated at WIT this evening.
The special awards night acknowledges students who received an A grade in Junior Certificate higher level Business Studies this year.
This is the 12th annual event and is hosted by the IT and the Business Studies Teachers Asssociation of Ireland.
The ceremony recognises student excellence and offers them a chance to view the campus and facilities.
Chairperson of BSTAI Pat Younger and Vice President for Academic Affairs and Registrar of WIT Dr Derek O’ Byrne will present students with a scroll/certificate of achievement, and business teachers will receive recognition plaques.
Dr Thomas O’Toole, Head (Dean) of the School of Business at WIT said that the evening will be an opportunity for parents, teachers and principals to celebrate the success of their students.
“This ceremony will recognise students’ excellence, while also giving them an opportunity to view the modern campus and facilities here at WIT. In time we hope to welcome these students back to WIT as undergraduates in one of our many business courses.”
