Informal Adult Learning - Shaping The Way Ahead
We value learning in all its forms. Learning can make a profound difference to adult lives in many ways:
- through the formal development of skills that enable people to get better jobs;
- through learning that helps develop families, communities and community cohesion;
- and by meeting the basic human need for creativity and stimulation.
This consultation is primarily but not exclusively about the last of these - structured and unstructured adult learning for enjoyment, personal fulfilment and intellectual, creative and physical stimulation.
