This year brought a return to a face-to-face event after Covid restrictions in previous years.
Careers Day is one of a range of activities organised at Enniskillen campus to help students prepare for their future in the equine industry.
Head of Equine Branch, Jane Elliott, commented: “I firmly believe that one of the key aspects influencing the success of Enniskillen students is the excellent support which we receive from the industry locally, across the Island and indeed further afield.”
Equine businesses and organisations from near and far enjoyed the buzz of the afternoon, while students gleaned knowledge and insight into a wide variety of career options in the equine industry.
Take a look through the gallery of images from the event below.
