Higher Education and Training Awards Council
The Higher Education and Training Awards Council ((アイルランド語:Comhairle na nDámhachtainí Ardoideachais agus Oiliúna)) (HETAC), the legal successor to the ''National Council for Educational Awards'' (NCEA), granted higher education awards in Ireland in the extra-university system from 2001 to 2012. The founding director of the National Council for Educational Awards was Padraig Mac Diarmada, whose educational vision and philosophy created the foundation stone for HETAC, and further education for all in Ireland. His vision enabled young students to attain educational qualifications which would never have been envisioned by them prior to 1972. HETAC was created in 2001, subject to the policies of the National Qualifications Authority of Ireland, and, specifically, granted qualifications at many Institutes of Technology and other colleges. HETAC was dissolved and its functions were passed to Quality and Qualifications Ireland (QQI) on 6 November 2012.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url=http://www.education.ie/en/Press-Events/Press-Releases/2012-Press-Releases/PR2012-11-06.html )〕
==History==
The National Council for Educational Awards (NCEA) was founded in April 1972, on an ad-hoc basis and granted the first National Certificates that year at five Regional Technical Colleges. Early on it was decided that the NCEA would be the only extra-university conferring institution in the State at higher education rather than having a multitude of competing institutions, with authority to grant awards at all academic levels including degree level. During the 1970s this caused some trouble as Fine Gael-Labour (National Coalition) government attempted to limit the NCEA to sub-degree awards only, later Fianna Fáil government of 1977 restored the full powers and placed the NCEA on a statutory footing in 1980 by the (National Council for Educational Awards Act, 1979 ).
HETAC was created in 2001 under the (Qualifications (Education and Training) Act, 1999 (Section 21) ) and its first chief executive, former Donaghmede national teacher and INTO President Séamus Puirséil (Seamus Purcell) was previously the executive officer of the NCEA. He was succeeded in 2008 by Gearóid Ó Conluain, formerly Deputy Chief Inspector of Department of Education and Science. In October 2008 the Irish Government announced its intention to amalgamate HETAC with FETAC and NQAI, the two other bodies established under the Qualifications Act, while also incorporating the functions for the external review of Irish universities currently carried out by the Irish Universities Quality Board.〔Consultation on amalgamation of qualifications and quality assurance bodies ()〕 The Minister appointed an interim board for the new agency. This board appointed Dr. Padraig Walsh as chief executive Designate in September 2010. In February 2011, Dr. Walsh became chief executive of HETAC, pending the establishment of the new statutory agency.
