Mr Keith Byrne

Following on from his degree Keith pursued a career in teaching and education, where he undertook and attained in 2010 a Train the Trainer qualification and a JEB IT Teaching Diploma in Education Principles & Practice from Dorset College Dublin. In 2020, Keith completed a MEd in Teaching & Learning from WIT, earning a distinction.

Keith worked as a qualified Multimedia Instructor with FAS/SOLAS/Waterford Wexford Education & Training Board (WWETB) from 2010 - 2024, teaching various IT and media related subjects.

Keith is also an accomplished photographer earning a Licentiateship from the Irish Photographic Federation (IPF) in 2023. 

An experienced professional educator with over 15 years of teaching experience, I have delivered a broad range of accredited IT and Photoshop courses through awarding bodies such as City & Guilds, FETAC/QQI (Levels 4–6), ICS, and Certiport. My teaching practice has supported a diverse student cohort, including both undergraduate and postgraduate learners from varied educational and professional backgrounds. Many of these learners were adult returners to education or individuals seeking employment, and a significant number have successfully progressed to further study or entered the workforce. In addition to subject-specific instruction, I have designed and delivered Moodle-based workshops for academic staff, focusing on Technology Enhanced Learning (TEL) strategies. These workshops, conducted both online and in person, were also extended to Further Education and Training (FET) staff and external contractors affiliated with the WWETB, supporting the integration of TEL tools across a range of learning environments.
