Official Launch: Céim Chun Tosaigh
October 16, 2012
BBC broadcaster, Lynette Fay, will launch a new DVD from Comhdháil Náisiúnta na Gaeilge and Comhar na Múinteoirí Gaeilge at Oireachtas na Samhna in Letterkenny.
Céim Chun Tosaigh – Ag Obair le Gaeilge is the second part of a series of DVDs promoting the Irish language in the senior cycle at second level. Cuireadh Chun Cainte, a practical guide to the Leaving Cert Oral exam, was launched this time last year and this new career guidance DVD acts as a follow on for students.
Céim Chun Tosaigh is aimed at secondary school students and teachers in all 32 counties to show them the various careers that are available through the Irish language.
Presented by Sibéal Davitt and Ciarán Ó Conghaíle, the DVD focuses on a wide range of careers, from media, teaching, technology, linguistics, law, teaching of the language abroad, sports, press officer with the army, the arts, business and childcare.
As part of the launch on Friday 2nd November at the Glendowan Suite at The Mount Errigal Hotel, the DVD will be screened in full and drinks and refreshments will be served. Céim Chun Tosaigh will soon be available on Youtube, on DVD and as a full programme screened on TG4.
