[Simon Harris TD @SimonHarrisTD]

Very productive meeting with Presidents of our Universities and Technological Universities with Min. @podonovan today.

Good discussion on core funding and student accommodation as thousands of Leaving Cert students are set to receive their results tomorrow-best of luck to all.

Inspiring breadth of Student-led presentation and projects at today’s #NTUTORRShowcase. Fantastic contribution from @myiadt staff and students. Huge credit to all involved and sincere thanks to @ntutorr national coordinators and @sharonlflynn 👏👏👏 #NextGenerationEU

[David Smith @David_Atelier]

@C20thPosters The Original ‘Design Manifesto’ 👏

Beatrice Warde’s text adapted for this one-off dedication to the great Dutch printer Cor Rosbeek of Drukkerij #Rosbeek b.v

@myIADT delighted with the constructive & overwhelmingly positive review & final report by the CINNTE team. Their commitment & engagement with us across 2023 was immensely positive & will inform the next phase of strategic growth & transformation at IADT. Thanks to @QQI_connect👏

[QQI @QQI_connect]

@Archidub1 We lived opposite on Herbert St during construction. It was such a disappointment. Arguably PoMo was in decline & it feels like a vain effort by the archs to add some variation to their output. Its material quality may stand up, but it will always be incongruous & unoriginal…

[David Smith @David_Atelier]

👇This significant funding commitment to advancing Technological Higher education is wholly welcomed by @myIADT and we look forward to accessing supports that will enhance & advance our unique position as a specialist HEI focused on the Creative Industries. 👏

[Simon Harris TD @SimonHarrisTD]

Key to the success of Technological Universities is funding.
Today I'm delighted to announce a new fund of €50million to help TUs fulfil their mission - to support the needs of individuals, business, and local communities in all our regions.

[David Smith @David_Atelier]

@AJWShaughnessy I think I was there that night. #Legends 👋

[David Smith @David_Atelier]

Today’s announcement by @SimonHarrisTD was truly significant, creating opportunity & access pathways for degree qualifications beyond the CAO. @myiadt delighted to have created a new BA in Immersive Media Production with our partners @KWETB @CityofDublinETB #LearnerFirst 👏👏👏

[RTÉ News @rtenews]

Minister for Further and Higher Education Simon Harris told @MorningIreland about how Leaving Certificate students who do not receive enough points for their hoped-for courses will be given a new pathway to third-level qualifications | Read more: https://t.co/dzZVKr3iEf

Extremely grateful to Bryan Murphy of @JJRhatigan who guided myself & @SimonHarrisTD through the incredible progress achieved so far on the construction of a new Digital Media Building for @myIADT. The views from the top were amazing!

@PantiBliss Aaah, World of Sport w/ Dickie Davies… you need to read Simon Garfield’s brilliant ‘The Wrestling’ full-on nostalgia trip and the mystery that was #KendoNagasaki!

[David Smith @David_Atelier]

@BallyboughDub That’s an unbelievably composed and beautifully lit photo. No doubt the pint was to the same high standard. 👏

Hugely symbolic & engaging event @MaynoothUni today. Six outstanding leaders who personify the progressive transformation within Irish HE. I was struck by their ‘first generation’ stories & their humility, determination and kindness. 👏 #BetterFutures #IWD2023
