The SOLAS Further Education and Training (FET) Strategy 2025-2029 consultation provides an important opportunity to shape the future direction of FET in Ireland. Teagasc welcomes this consultation process as it allows for a collaborative approach in defining a strategic vision that ensures alignment across all sectors, including the land-based sectors. As a leading provider of education and training for agriculture, horticulture, forestry, and equine sectors, Teagasc has a unique and critical role in delivering high-quality, practical-based learning that supports both generational renewal and workforce development in these sectors. Our response to this consultation highlights the key areas where Teagasc can contribute to the national FET strategy and the structural challenges that must be addressed to maximise our impact.
