This consultation document starts a discussion that will lead to a new vision for informal adult learning for the 21st century. Chapter one gives a taste of the rich mix of informal adult learning: during the consultation we will commission a mapping of informal adult learning activity in order to identify gaps in what is available and/or accessible to different learner groups; Chapter two sets out some of the exciting informal adult learning opportunities funded through a range of Government departments; Chapter three describes our current adult education service in England: during the consultation we will open up the debate about its role for the future; Chapter four reviews the issues about ensuring equality of access to learning; and Chapter five looks at the role of technology in informal adult learning: the consultation will ask what more can be done to ensure that learners can access cutting edge developments in technology and broadcasting.
