Interactive Data Centre Dashboard

Welcome to the Participation Rates Data Centre where you can interactively view historical data the on numbers of students with disabilities registered with disability support services in Higher Education in Ireland. The Interactive Data Centre Dashboard allows you to interact with graphs to show the information you require over time and explore our data set in different ways - you can filter out unwanted information, hover over the charts for added information and context, and click on bar charts to get further information and compare data as you wish. The various historical data reports which supply the underlying data set for this dashboard can be found in written report format in the data section of our publications page.

This dashboard is created for use on a laptop or desktop device and may not be properly viewable on a tablet or mobile device. 

Last update: 2019/20 academic year data added Oct 2021
