I am delighted to have been appointed Chairperson of the Oireachtas Committee on Further & Higher Education, Research, Innovation and Science —an incredibly important area.

I have many interests and priorities in this sector, including ensuring an increased offering of courses for people with disabilities that suit their goals.

The future of our Further and Higher Education sector here in Louth is bright, and I am committed to supporting the strong ambition for DKIT and our ETB offerings, including Ó Fiaich College, DIFE, and the AMTCE.

Previously, I served as a member of the board of LMETB and briefly on the board of DKIT. Having worked in Adult Education within Cavan VEC, I understand the necessity to support this crucial area.

For further information, reach out to Erin McGreehan.
