Unlocking the full potential of technology to get adults learning

Описание: In a world where our potential can be unlocked through the right skills, vocational technology is the key that opens doors of new opportunity, building a more inclusive, thriving future where everybody benefits.

This live online session provided an opportunity to explore with Ufi Trustees and team members Ufi's recently launched 2025 - 2030 strategy to unlock the full potential of technology to get adults learning.

Ufi Trustees share their personal perspectives on adult skills and the change required to ensure adults, communities and industries across the UK have the skills needed to thrive in work.
