Important Facts

The National Framework of Qualifications (NFQ) was launched in 2003. It is now the single structure mechanism for recognising all education and training in Ireland. You will see that all framework awards now have an NFQ Level (1-10) which tells you about the standard of learning and an NFQ Award-Type which tells you about the purpose, volume and progression opportunities associated with a particular award.

The ‘fan diagram’ helps to illustrate the levels on the NFQ and each level is based on nationally agreed standards of knowledge, skill and competence i.e. what an individual is expected to know, understand and be able to do following successful completion of a process of learning.

Ranking / Awards

The Graphic Design Award by Yamaha (GDAY) is a global award that looks for new designs of marques, symbols, and pictograms that promote the theme of Kando. It was won by 3rd Year Full Time Graphic Design Degree Student Laurie Concannon in 2015, who received the first prize of $10,000 US.

The 2015 Frankfurt Style Awards announced its shortlist for the catwalk show in April 2015. Siu-Hong Mok from 1st Year Full Time Fashion Design was selected to exhibit his garment "Less is More" in the Ecological Green catwalk show, one of two Irish representatives.

The 2014 Dublin Fashion Festival announced the 12 finalists for their catwalk show in August 2014. Marian Witcher and Suzanne Stroker from Dublin Institute of Design were included in the shortlist.

On 13 October 2014, TV3 announced a rival to RTÉ One's The Late Late Toy Show which broadcast live from the RDS on 21 November 2014. TV3 commissioned Dublin Institute of Design's fashion design students to create a dress from loom bands. The result was a dress inspired by Disney's Frozen (2013 film).
