Abstract
The Irish National Awards for Excellence in Teaching in Higher Education ran for a total of five years, during which time forty-three higher education staff members across a wide range of Higher Education institutions and disciplinary backgrounds were recognised and celebrated for their contribution to the integration of research, teaching and learning in Ireland. This publication traces the impact the NAIRTL Awards on the career trajectories and teaching practice of the award holders. It emphasizes the sustained contribution of the recipients to Irish higher education, and gathers together their recommendations regarding the development of national schemes such as the nascent Learning Impact Awards of the National Forum for the Enhancement of Teaching and Learning.
