Question:
To ask the Minister for the Economy to detail the work she is undertaking to increase the uptake of lifelong learning.

Answer:

My officials have been working with the Alliance for Lifelong Learning to develop approaches that will embed a culture of lifelong learning. In April, we launched ‘Measuring the Impact of Adult Education in NI: Current Practice and Ways Forward’ (MeasuringtheImpactofAdultEd2025.pdf) . We are currently considering how best to progress the recommendations in partnership with the Alliance.
