What former Boot Camp participants have said
"I'm a fifth year student. When I came across Boot Camp, I realised that it is a great opportunity for me, as I am doing accounting for the Leaving Certificate.
"What I really loved about Boot Camp was that I could learn at my own pace, and the teaching helped me to get a clearer understanding of the topics that had been covered in school. The notes are detailed and to the point. I also found the homework questions very helpful. Also, Boot Camp provides an optional challenge for the participants, which gives them a deeper insight into the situations of a business in real life.
"Overall, I really enjoyed Boot Camp. If anybody is thinking to try Boot Camp, I would certainly recommend it, especially if you are interested in pursuing accounting. I hope you will try it out and enjoy it as much as I did."
- Emil, 5th year student, Boot Camp participant 2021
“I really enjoyed taking part in Boot Camp. I am in Transition Year and did not do business for the Junior Cycle but I wanted to take up Accounting for the Leaving Cert. Boot Camp gave me a great taste for Accounting and I feel a lot more confident going into fifth year after completing it. I feel like after the short week-long course I have caught up to my classmates who did study Business in the Junior Cycle, and I now know what to expect next year!”
- Anna, TY student, Boot Camp participant 2020
"This is a fantastic resource to be able to give to Transition Year students, some of whom might otherwise find it difficult to start accountancy at senior cycle with no business background. It is very well done, very well laid out and very understandable, even for those who haven’t done business before.
"The resources are brilliant – the technology is very interactive, giving students the freedom to click in and out of activities. It’s new and engaging for them. As a teacher, I like that I can let them learn using the videos and can provide back up if they need it.”
- Charlotte, TY Coordinator and teacher
