The future of the left since 1884

Equipped for the future: A vision for adult skills and training

Share

A skilled population is the key to a better quality of life for us all. Improving skills can increase productivity and pay and make for a more resilient and prosperous economy. As we adapt to technology change and embark on a green transition, it is more important than ever to keep upskilling people across their lives.

This collection examines adult education and training in the UK and presents a vision of the action needed to meet the scale of our skills challenge. With a foreword by David Blunkett and contributions from Fiona Aldridge, Bhavina Bharkhada, Paul Nowak, Michael Marra MSP and more.
