Thinking and Planning Tertiary
NIACE Conference on Further and Higher Education
Monday 13 October 2003
Tower Thistle Hotel, St Katharine's Way, London W1W
Following the issue of the White Paper on The Future of Higher Education
in January and the appearance mid-year of the Skills Strategy White
Paper, there has been animated discussion of the future of both further
and higher education, and of the relationship between them.
This conference starts from our current arrangements for Further and
Higher Education. It acknowledges the widely recognised need for a
universal lifelong learning system, and the difficulty of planning
across portfolios and sectors as well as throughout life to bring such a
system into being throughout the four nations of the United Kingdom.
This Conference will be of interest and importance to all concerned with
our future social and economic health, and with the ways in which
post-secondary learning opportunities can be developed to meet the
lifelong learning needs of the 'knowledge economy and society.'
