Change your Life Fund with the National College of Ireland and Metro

I just got an email with the following info and I thought *wow*, I have to pass this along. Projects like these make me proud to be working as associate faculty with the National College of Ireland (NCI). They have teamed up with Metro to offer one lucky individual a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to change their lives, upgrade their skills and acquire the qualifications and confidence to succeed.

The winner will earn an amazing prize package including an educational fund worth €20,000 and €15,000 in other supports, like personal mentoring, computer equipment and even a style package.  Contestants just need to answer one simple question: Why do you want to change your life, and how could education help?

The competition is open to anyone aged 18 and older and resident in the Republic of Ireland. Contestants have to fill out an entry form and submit a brief essay in answer to the question above. The application form and terms and conditions will be available on the NCI website from the launch date, which is today Tuesday, 28th April.

Judges from NCI and Metro will shortlist applicants and the shortlist will be published in Metro this August. Finalists will be interviewed and the winner will be notified by Friday, 28th August.
