Hello! I am Joan Broderick, Founder of Pathways. I have spent over 30 years working in education and healthcare.
I understand how anxious it can feel when you’re unsure of where to turn as a parent and as a student. 

I have worked closely with students and parents in second and third level colleges in Ireland. This experience has shown me what stresses students and their families can face. The good news is I know how to help avoid these issues. As a former college health nurse and access to education coordinator, I supported students with educational and hardship challenges. I also have worked as a disability advocate, focusing on independent living.

As a Mum to three graduates, I know this journey well.
