Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Skills
The Future of STEM in Irish Education: Discussion (Resumed).
Mr. Andrew Brownlee:
I do not believe so - not for the apprenticeship and not for the further education course. I do not think so. In higher education courses, it is a question of stimulating a demand and interest. As Dr. Patterson said, there is a key opportunity to upskill the existing workforce in cyber knowledge and cyber skills as well. There is no capacity issue; it is about demand.
