Foreword -- Preface -- Opening remarks -- The 1960s : 'nothing happens out of a blue sky. You approach development through gradualness' -- The 1970s : 'the problem faced by the Government ... whether to ... develop the existing binary system or to initiate ... a fully comprehensive system of higher education' -- The 1980s : 'We stress that each Governing Body should be established in its own right ... so that they can perform executive tasks and actions in law' -- The 1990s : 'the Committee recommends Regional Institutes of Technology as a new title for the RTCs' -- The 2000s : 'We are particularly impressed by the extent to which the institutes see themselves as different from the universities' -- The 2010s : 'traumatised group of HEIs' -- Closing remarks.
The history of Ireland's regional technical colleges (institutes of technology). This book will appeal to those who have come from, or have been associated with, the regional technical colleges and who are interested in the richness of the story of their colleges. It is hoped also that the book will appeal to those interested in education and policy development.
