Developing New Awards
The Qualifications and Quality Assurance (Education and Training) Bill was published in July 2011.
The Bill provides for the amalgamation of the National Qualifications Authority of Ireland (NQAI), the Higher Education and Awards Council (HETAC) and the Further Education and Awards Council (FETAC).
In order to prepare for the dissolution of FETAC, the transition of functions to the new agency and the reassignment of resources across the new organisation, FETAC wishes to advise that no new award proposals are being accepted pending the establishment of the new agency.
