We’re Exhibiting at the IGC Conference: Here’s What We’re Bringing
We’re pleased to share that CareerFit will be exhibiting at this year’s Institute of Guidance Counsellors Conference.
The IGC Conference is an important opportunity for guidance professionals across Ireland to connect, reflect on evolving student needs, and explore tools that support effective, evidence-based practice. We are looking forward to being part of those conversations.
Here is what we will be bringing with us.
What CareerFit Is
CareerFit is a structured career assessment programme that provides an individualised report that combines both interests and aptitudes, offering students clear insight into what genuinely suits them. Rather than focusing solely on preferences or academic results, CareerFit integrates multiple dimensions of understanding into one comprehensive career assessment report.
The result is a practical tool that supports meaningful guidance conversations around subject choice, CAO applications, and longer-term career direction.
Who CareerFit is For
CareerFit is designed for guidance counsellors working in post-primary schools who want a professional, criterion-referenced assessment that strengthens their practice.
It supports:
- Senior cycle students making CAO decisions
- Students whose confidence has shifted following mock results
- Subject choice conversations at key transition points
- Guidance departments seeking a structured, repeatable framework
It is also suitable for schools that want a solution that is administratively straightforward and cost-effective.
Why CareerFit Different
Not all career assessments are built for the realities of Irish schools.
CareerFit was first developed with the specific pressures of the Irish education system in mind. It combines interests and aptitudes in a single report, allowing guidance counsellors to ground conversations in objective data rather than assumption or short-term performance.
The report is criterion-referenced, focusing on the individual student rather than comparison with peers. This supports clarity without unnecessary labelling or narrowing of options.
Just as importantly, CareerFit is designed to be practical. The reporting structure makes it easy to use within real guidance sessions, helping counsellors move from exploration to evidence-based discussion efficiently.
What You Can Expect at Our Stand
At our stand, you will be able to:
- View a full sample CareerFit report
- See how the assessment supports subject and CAO guidance conversations
- Discuss how it integrates into existing school processes
- Ask questions about implementation, reporting, and cost
We are not there to replace professional judgement. We are there to show how a structured assessment can support and strengthen it.
If you are attending the IGC Conference, we would be delighted to meet you, introduce CareerFit, and explore how it might support your guidance practice.
We look forward to continuing the conversation.
