Abstract

The national priorities for action in adult learning are reviewed. A new structure of vocational qualifications is being established and there is major development in open and distance learning. High priority should be given to the development of leaders and managers, and those with technological qualifications. There is a need for more commitment to training from employers, trade unions and individuals.
