Dole meeting confused help??

eiredog

I got a letter the other day to attend a meeting at the dole to basically prove to them that i am looking for work.
I'm really nervous because i don't know what to say to them when i get there because i've never had a job before and i'm 21 year's old so I dont know how i can prove to them how i'm looking for work .
My biggest problem aswell is, that i left school at 15 years old and every other thing ive been into trying to get my junior cert, i got bullied in so now i'm trying really hard to get my junior cert and leaving cert so i can continue my education.
This is all i really want to do is focus on getting my education and not look for a job.
I've also been looking for a course to do and i found a course that i'm really interesed in for airline training and recruitment.
So do you think if i go to the meeting at the dole tomorrow and explain to them that all i really want to do is focus on getting my education and do this course? that i would get away with it.. haha.
I don't know, I'm just really nervous on what to explain to them because i have no way of getting a job with nothing to put on my cv for education and experience and reference. But i am working on it by getting my education and this course.
Please help
