Modulacc have been incredibly supportive and generous with their time, providing our students with real insights into the working world,&#8221; he said. &#8220;They\u2019ve come away from the experience with new skills and more confidence.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>A major highlight of the scheme was a mock interview session.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Students had to review real-world roles at the company, apply for the positions that interested them, and undergo formal interviews at the Modulacc offices.<\/p>\n<p>Modulacc Managing Director, Colin McNamara, praised the standard of the local students, noting that their engagement and preparation were &#8220;a credit to their school.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The programme wrapped up this week with a ceremony where students were awarded certificates for completing their professional development workshops.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/apps.apple.com\/us\/app\/onic-player\/id6747436925?ppid=49bb71e2-4823-448e-b0e8-311158962de3\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" class=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/68da98f76f434.png\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\n  \u00a0\n<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"All Live95 News Arthur Ellis Photography Students at St. Clement\u2019s College in Limerick have completed a workplace readiness&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":423456,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[93,61,60,608,611,607,610,609,612],"class_list":["post-423455","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-entertainment","tag-entertainment","tag-ie","tag-ireland","tag-limerick-radio","tag-limerick-today","tag-limericks-live95fm","tag-live-95","tag-live95fm","tag-live95fm-homepage"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/423455","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=423455"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/423455\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/423456"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=423455"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=423455"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=423455"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
