GMIT Mayo are hosting a virtual GMIT Mayo Open Evening on Wednesday, 5th May, 2021 from 5pm-8pm.

The evening will feature live Q&A sessions, videos, tours and giveaways.
There will be live-to-camera sessions with staff and students ready to answer questions about the range of programmes on offer at GMIT – from Nursing, Early Childhood Education and Care, Social Care, to Community Youth Development, History and Geography, Culture and Environment, and Outdoor Education, as well as postgraduate and professional development courses, and the excellent student supports available. Staff from GMIT’s Access and Disability Office will also be on hand for virtual one-to-one sessions.

Mona Wise, GMIT Schools’ Liaison Officer, described the virtual events platform as user-friendly and fun. “We have hosted 10 incredibly successful events on this virtual platform since November 2020. Students can engage via the live stream Q&A function in real-time and get immediate answers to their questions from all our experts. This has been ground-breaking for us here at GMIT. We are excited about where the future will take us now that we can broaden our reach (albeit virtually) to connect with more schools and students. We are looking forward to massive student/teacher/parent engagement for our Mayo campus on 5th May and want to remind everyone to follow us via hashtags #chooseGMIT #GMITMayo for this event, as we have lots of goodies to giveaway too! If unable to attend, please connect with [email protected] and we will send you a link to the taped version of the event.”
