Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Social Protection

Delivering Third Level Education Online: Discussion with Hibernia College and Schoolbag

2:15 pm

Dr. Nicholas Breakwell:

I will summarise some of the themes by reading this brief letter from a student on the primary programme, on which Ms Anna Davitt teaches. This addresses the quality of provision, access and flexibility. I did not make it up.


I would like to take this opportunity to say thank you to you and your wonderful staff. I have enjoyed immensely my course to date. Without doubt it has been one of the most challenging things I have undertaken. Balancing working full-time and four children under nine, on top of a postgrad, has been tough going but I don't think I will ever find the words to explain how satisfying and fulfilling it has been. It has given me the opportunity to fulfil a dream that, without Hibernia, would not have been possible.
