Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Skills
Professional Accreditation of Higher Education Courses: Discussion
Ms Fiona O'Byrne:
As higher education institutions apply for regulation, the Department is not party to those processes. However, we do have a role in engaging with colleagues in the Department of Health, CORU and the institutions to support that engagement, and to ensure that processes are progressing in the event of any issues emerging. We are not actually party to the individual accreditation applications.
