Our Story
Create the Great in You was founded in 2017 by Mark following on from his Level 8 Bachelor of Arts Honours Degree in Social Care from Dundalk Institute of Technology. He was awarded the President’s Prize by DkIT President Denis Cummins for his “Contribution to the Community and to the Life of the Institute”. In 2016 he co-authored a paper which was represented in Milan at the ESA European Sociological Educational Conference.
Mark has over 10 years’ experience working with organisations, educational bodies and communities where he has gained insight into the variety of challenges which people face in different environments.
The aim of Create the Great in You is to equip people with interpersonal skills which they can incorporate into their daily practice with the common goal and shared vision of reaching their true potential.
