Course Description
Ireland’s Third Level Graduate Programme allows eligible non-EEA graduates who have completed qualifying Irish higher-education awards to remain in Ireland after study while seeking graduate-level employment and pursuing an appropriate employment permit or research hosting agreement. The permission is granted on Stamp 1G. This training provides immigration professionals with practical knowledge of qualification levels, Stamp 2 transition, application timing, documentation, employment conditions, medical insurance and renewal requirements. The course is designed for immigration consultants, education advisers, visa filing professionals and caseworkers handling Ireland study-to-work immigration cases. Through World Visa Academy’s structured training, learners develop skills to assess graduate profiles, verify qualification evidence, prepare Stamp 1G cases and explain the transition to employment-permit routes. The course focuses on accurate case preparation without guaranteeing employment, approval or long-term residence.
