As a professional researcher or expert on Vocational Education and Training, you might be interested in our new English newsletter which reports on Céreq ongoing studies and recent publications.
One of the speakers at the Engaging Young People in Lifelong Learning conference previously posted is Professor Johanna Wyn of the University of Melbourne. We are very pleased to report that Professor Wyn has been awarded an Australian Research Council Grant on Young Adults transitions from education to work. The project which will be undertaken over a three year period is led by University of Melbourne.
The interim report of the Commission on Widening Access to HE in Scotland has recently been published together with a summary of evidence submitted. I am a little surprised to find no reference to adult learning and second chance education in the report, though pleased to see that some of the issues that I raised are documented in the summary of evidence. I attach the report, the summary of evidence, and my own submission on behalf of CR&DALL.
In a context of high levels of youth disengagement and unemployment, we invite all those involved in teaching, educational leadership, research and policy to share their thinking and experience on policies and practices that support young people’s multiple transitions.
