The DCU Retiree Community has more than 500 members, most of whom keep in touch with the University through an array of activities aimed at both retirees and the wider DCU community.

We realise that this process has not been easy for many of you, and want to thank you for your understanding over these past few months. We assure you that we do this to ensure better data governance and practices, while further mitigating the risk of a cybersecurity threat to the University. To address the areas of data governance, best practices and cybersecurity, the University has created a new 'Digital Identity Policy' which now applies to all staff in the University which can be viewed here. 

We have also outlined the various reasons on our Retiree Switch FAQ page here.

We kindly ask that you stay connected with DCU and avail of the opportunities that are available to our retiree community.
