Globally, participation in higher education has risen substantially. According to the OECD ( Education at a Glance 2012) entry rates to university level programmes in OECD countries grew on average by nearly 25 percentage points between 1995 and 2010. Consequently, more than a third of today’s young people have higher level qualifications than their parents and around 62% of young adults are expected to enter university - level programmes over their lifetimes.

This is a personal invitation to be part of a very special conference: The FACE Annual Conference which celebrates its 20th anniversary this year is being hosted by Plymouth University, 3 - 5 July.
The Conference title for this unique event is "Learner Journeys - Origins, Experiences and Destinations". This title captures and reflects the longstanding concern and interest of FACE members and their institutions in putting learners at the heart of higher education. At a time of enormous change in the landscape of access and widening participation this conference will provide an ideal opportunity, through both the plenary and workshop sessions, to explore and respond to these key changes.
