During the inquiry, experts from government, business, academia, trade
unions, public service, providers and the voluntary and community sector, as
well as learners, will come together in a process to identify a broad consensus
for the future direction of adult learning policy in the UK.
The inquiry will look at the critical issues that will face our society in
coming decades, and identify how adult learning can equip us to meet these
challenges. Key themes have been identified to provide a focus for the
work.
The commission will undertake a detailed assessment of evidence from the UK and
beyond, including commissioned research and analysis and the collection of
written and oral evidence.
We are actively seeking contributions from the field. Through its deliberative
processes, the commission aims to build consensus and support for the resulting
national strategy and engage a range of powerful voices to advocate for the new
agenda for adult learning. You can contribute by responding to a call for
evidence or through participation in one of the
thematic conferences or learner
events.
