On the 24th July 2020 as part of the Government’s announcement on the July stimulus package an additional funding allocation of €47.5m was provided for Higher Education skills-related programmes.
The initiatives to receive funding were identified by the Department of Further & Higher Education, Research, Innovation and Science (DFHERIS) following discussions between them, the Irish University Association (IUA), Technological Higher Education Association (THEA) and the HEA. The DFHERIS set the criteria for the initiatives and requested that the HEA allocate the funds to the HEIs.
The HEA are now launching the call for proposals under the Postgraduate Skills Provision and Modular Skills Provision headings.
The deadline for receipt of proposals for both Postgraduate Taught Programmes (Full and Part Time) and Modular Skills Provision is 4pm on Friday 11th September 2020. Completed applications should be emailed to [email protected]
