Career

From 2013,[5][6] Moriarty oversaw a major restructuring of the Further Education and Training (FET) sector in Ireland, when, as a result of the Education and Training Boards Act 2013,[7] IVEA was renamed Education and Training Boards Ireland (ETBI) and IVEA’s 33 member Vocational Education Committees (VECs) were amalgamated into 16 statutory regional Education and Training Boards (ETBs) and assumed the training functions of FÁS, the now defunct national training authority.

Since 2014 Moriarty has been President of the European Federation of Education Employers[8] (EFEE) which includes education employer organisations from across the EU/EFTA countries. EFEE is a partner with ETUCE, the European Trade Union Committee for Education, in the European Sectoral Social Dialogue body for Education (ESSDE)][9] which is consulted by the European Commission on education policy and initiatives.

Moriarty was the chief executive of the now defunct Carlow Kildare Radio from 1989 to 1997. He is a former President of the County Carlow Chamber of Commerce[10]. He served on the board of the Broadcasting Authority of Ireland from 2010–2015[11] and was also a board member of FÁS, the former national training authority, prior to its dissolution in 2013.

Awards and recognition

Moriarty received the Waterford Crystal Quality of Life Award in the Southeast Region in 1989 for his work in the community. In 2016, he was awarded the international Albert Schweitzer Leadership for Life award,[12] in recognition of his lifelong commitment to education and his leadership in education, training and structural reform.

It is generally assumed that whoever is reading your code is aware of the basics of how the language is used, so your comments should instead describe higher-level stuff like *why* it's doing what it does, what an entire function does, unusual things it might be doing, etc.
gollark: Increasing the version number would imply that it's actually a significant change.
gollark: Not really, it's a minor UI reskin.
gollark: That would be more reliability, not more support.
