Beech Hill College KEY Programme
December 12th, 2011 by Mary Carroll(Back to Beech Hill College Website)
For the 11th year running Beech Hill College is involved in the KEY (Knowledge through Enterprise for Youth) Programme again this year.
Twelve students from Beech Hill College travelled with their Teacher Mr. McHugh to Lorne House in Belfast recently for the 1st of four residentials.
The KEY Programme is a cross-border, cross-community project which involves linking up with two other schools in Northern Ireland. The students spend a total of 15 days in Northern Ireland. The programme is funded by the International Fund for Ireland through Young Enterprise Northern Ireland and Junior Achievement Ireland. This year Beech Hill College is linked with a school from Portaferry and a school from Newry.
The programme has a business theme, where students have to set up a mini-company, design a product, market it and hopefully make a profit. They also take part in outdoor activities such as Caving, Jungle Gym, Canoeing and Kayaking at Belfast Activities Centre.
Students also prepare Curriculum Vitae and members of the business community in Belfast come in and conduct Mock Interviews with the students.
The students then attend a final graduation day at the Waterfront Hall in Belfast.
