United Kingdom  

The theme this year is about exploring the ways in which employers, academic practitioners, and learners in the workplace co-design university study that is both flexible and fit for purpose, for example learning contracts and agreements.

While the Apprenticeship agenda is now being launched more widely in higher education in the United Kingdom, continuing programmes for individual learners and corporate partners are being repositioned across the globe as an international development. Practitioners and researchers in this field are actively engaged in leading the way to challenge and transform existing practice in the workplace and the academy. Also the day will include a panel of Employers and Students.
