Matthew Fell, CBI Chief UK Policy Director, said:

“Adult learning is heading in the wrong direction at precisely the wrong time for our economy and our society. Technology is rapidly changing the world of work and driving up demand for new and higher skills. This is a huge opportunity – which is why we need the partnership of the century between business, government, the education sector and workers to deliver the retraining essential to ensuring everyone benefits.”
