Further Education Enhancement Seminar 2016
QQI, in association with ETBI, hosted an enhancement seminar for the Education and Training Boards in April 2016.
National and international speakers presented on the approaches and models of self-evaluation and reflective practice and provided examples and experiences from Ireland and overseas. The purpose of the event was to explore the benefits of self-evaluation and reflective practice from strategic and operational perspectives.
The programme is available to view

This enhancement seminar was designed specifically for Education and Training Boards (ETBs) to coincide with the introduction of the work QQI is doing with the ETBs on QA guidelines, validation policy and future institutional-level review. The seminar was open to all those representing various facets of the ETB community, ETBI and other key associates. At the event, there was representation from a broad range of roles within the ETBs, including Principals/Directors/Managers; Quality Assurance Officers; Training Standards Officers; Education Officers; and Development Officers.
