The Future of Further Education Forum 2011
10 May 2011
Held at The Bloomsbury Hotel, London WC1

Headline Speakers

The Future of Further Education Forum highlighted how sector specialists, principals, senior management teams, and policy leaders, will prepare for changes that this new age demands.

This national forum explored the evolving funding and governance models for colleges, whilst sharing best practice in demonstrating quality and making valuable resources stretch further. How will the sector find alternative revenue streams and develop new products and services?
