‘Because of the changes necessitated by the COVID-19 pandemic, SETU Carlow has been working to ensure that our students are not disadvantaged at the point of assessment, while preserving the academic integrity and standards of all awards. In so doing, we have been mindful of the principles and guidelines set out at a national level by Quality and Qualifications Ireland (QQI) and the practices being introduced across higher education’.
