In late 2005 the Training and Skills Commission through its Adult Community Education Reference Group undertook a broad consultation process to identify possible ways of increasing participation in community learning throughout South Australia. The major issues that arose during the consultations have shaped the goals of the Community Learning Strategy: Goal 1 Proud to be Learning - promote learning as a social activity that has personal, social, community, economic and environmental benefits; Goal 2 Learning through Living - improve the general wellbeing of each individual through a lifetime of learning; Goal 3 Learning and Growing Together - offer learning opportunities in all communities so that the whole State becomes a network of learning communities; and Goal 4 Prospering through Learning - foster learning in organisations, workplaces and industry. In this document the Training and Skills Commission presents new directions for supporting the development of a learning culture in South Australia. It aims to do this by: (1) expanding the range of learning opportunities that are available in the community, and (2) increasing the number of people participating in them.
