Entry requirements

Applicants must hold a Level 8 qualification (NFQ or equivalent) and be registered with the Teaching Council of Ireland (Route 2). Written support from their proposing school is desirable. Interviews may be conducted. If you have Route 3 Teaching Council Registration, please see Question Time; Frequently Asked Questions at https://www.mtu.ie/courses/crfhoec8/ If you are a Home Economics Teacher, qualified outside of Ireland, and have a credit shortfall on your registration status with the Teaching Council, please email Home.Economics@mtu.ie to apply (further details provided in Question Time FAQ section at https://www.mtu.ie/courses/crfhoec8/ ). What is RPL? Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) is when formal recognition is given for what you already know prior to starting on a programme or module. With recognition of prior learning the focus is on learning and not on experience as such. You can apply for RPL in any MTU accredited programme or module. Programmes which are accredited by professional bodies or any external awarding bodies may have their own procedures for RPL which you should refer to.
