Brenda Blake Email & Phone Number

I am a senior executive officer in the Access Policy section of the Higher Education Authority (HEA). Access Policy work to ensure that the student body entering, participating in and completing higher education at all levels reflects the diversity and social mix of Ireland's population.I was educated in University of Limerick and Dublin City University. I am interested in the strategic development of the Irish higher education and research system and in working to highlight the importance of initiatives supporting educational advancement. Educational advancement serves as crucial pathways to better employment opportunities, financial independence, escaping economic vulnerability, fulfilling personal educational interests and individual self-determination. I am particularly interested in initiatives which target the most underrepresented and disadvantaged groups in Ireland so that equal opportunity is afforded to all.

Listed skills include Teaching, Teacher Training, Lesson Planning, Educational Technology, and 12 others.
