Higher Options returns to the RDS Dublin as one of Ireland’s leading education and career events, bringing together students, parents, teachers, and guidance counsellors to explore the wide range of opportunities available after secondary school. Organised annually by the Irish Times, the event provides valuable information for anyone considering their next steps in education, training, or employment.

Visitors can meet representatives from universities, colleges, further education providers, apprenticeships, professional bodies, and employers from across Ireland and beyond. The exhibition offers a practical opportunity to compare courses, learn about entry requirements, and gain insight into potential career pathways.

A key feature of Higher Options is its programme of talks and seminars, covering topics such as the CAO process, studying abroad, apprenticeships, career planning, and emerging industries. These sessions are designed to help attendees make informed decisions about their future education and career choices.

Held at the spacious RDS venue in Dublin, Higher Options continues to be an essential event for students preparing for life after school, offering expert advice, useful resources, and direct access to educational institutions and industry professionals.
