The focus of the day is on The Future of Adult Learning and Funding and we are very pleased to be welcoming Shane Chowen, the Head of Policy and Public Affairs at NIACE as our opening speaker. During the day we will also be discussing the potential development of SPIAL to increase its impact and effectiveness and assessing the interest in establishing local networks of adult learning providers across the county.
