Mr. Shane O'Connor:

The rating drop in terms of skills between third year and transition year was definitely a result of people going on work experience and seeing that the skill sets they have get them so far but not all the way. Moving forward, we could have a multitude approach whereby people learn some skills and then apply them. It is when that happens that people learn how little they know and can learn more. Practical as well as theoretical applications can create a strong framework.
