The Mary Breslin Award
Mary Breslin was a dedicated member of the InterTradeIreland Board from 2000 to 2005. She oversaw the development and implementation of InterTradeIreland’s graduate placement programmes, in particular the FUSION programme.
Mary believed they were an important means of giving young people the skills and experience they need to move from the world of study to the workplace. Sadly Mary passed away in November 2005.
In recognition of the important contribution Mary made to the organisation and her particular interest in, and support for young people, we have established ‘The Mary Breslin Award’.
The annual award will be presented to the graduate who achieves the highest score in the Postgraduate Diploma in Business and Management .
A £2,000 scholarship will also be awarded.
