JOIN OUR CAMPAIGN PARTNERSHIP
Important update on Adult Learners’ Week:
Due to the passing of Her Majesty The Queen Elizabeth II – Adult Learners’ Week has been postponed to 17 – 23 October 2022. We hope that our campaign partners can join us on these new dates where there will be more space for a focus on the promotion and celebration of Adult Learners’ Week.
About the campaign:
Since launching this platform we have built on our campaign partnership with nearly 200 registered providers, gained over 167k page views, and engaged nearly 20,000 users. The campaign inspires and engage adults to take a step back into learning for many reasons; to improve their confidence and wellbeing, switch careers, progress in work, discover a newfound passion and connect with others or to seek advice and guidance on the pathways available to them.
Learning and Work Institute are working with campaign partners to promote online, live and in-person events, courses, taster sessions, open days, resources and careers advice and guidance throughout October with a focus on special events taking place during campaign week.
To make 2022 even more successful, we need your support to promote lifelong learning opportunities
