Committee on Infrastructure and National Development Plan Delivery

The Role of Engineering in Delivering High-Quality Infrastructure: Discussion

2:00 am

Mr. John Jordan:

Engineers Ireland is about the people. We have 30,000 members. Companies are represented by others and there is then the academy so to make the distinction, we are about the people. We run a programme called "STEPS to engineering" for primary and secondary school students. We reach approximately 100,000 students per annum with our programme. If that were to be extended, maybe in collaboration with Government and other bodies, we could try to reach 300,000.
