A new national award programme – open to recipients of SATLE (Strategic Alignment of Teaching and Learning Enhancement Funding in Higher Education) funding has been launched by the Higher Education Authority.
SATLE Impact Awards will recognize impact and excellence in areas such as digital transformation, academic integrity and education for sustainable development.
The award aims to highlight institutional and sectoral efforts to promote, learn from, and extend the reach of excellent practices in teaching and learning across Irish higher education.
Each awardee will receive a €25,000 prize to support a project to further develop their work or to focus on a new avenue of research. A maximum of four awards totalling €100,000 will be supported as part of this call.
SATLE is administered by the Higher Education Authority. It was launched in June 2022, and since then three grant allocations have been made to the higher education sector – €7.7m in 2022, €6.1m in 2023 and €5m in 2024.
Further information on the call for applications can be found here.
