Webinar on – Investigating participation in adult learning and education: but how is it measured?

Webinar on Investigating participation in adult learning and education: but how is it measured?

The webinar to take place on 13th of March at 13h CET.

It will introduce the audience to our review of survey programmes that include data on adult education issues. Join them for the discussion on the differences in measurement and conceptualisation of adult education. They are drawing on insights from codebooks and questionnaires from the Learning & Work Institute’s Adult Participation in Learning survey, the OECD’s Programme for in International Assessment of Adult Competencies, the Eurostat Adult Education Survey and the Labour Force Survey.

This webinar will present the audience to the ALE policies project, funded by the ESRC. The overall aim of the project is to investigate the knowledge base on adult education in the UK and Ireland. They will look into how participation has fluctuated over the past 25 years and how policy-makers use adult education data to feed into their policy processes.

Throughout the presentation, they will investigate to what extent differences in methodologies and conceptual underpinnings lead to similar or different insights in the determinants of participation.

The presentations will be followed by a Q&A session with the project’s team members from the University of Glasgow, the University of Nottingham and the Learning & Work Institute.
