This consultation is being carried out by Scotland's Learning Partnership, Learning Link Scotland and Workers' Educational Association, Scotland. All three organisations sit on the Strategic Forum for Adult Learning and have been tasked with developing a strategy for adult learning in Scotland. The strategy will focus on the priorities for the next five years, and address the core principles of the Statement of Ambition. These are: 1. Adult learning is lifelong beginning in the Early Years, supported by Curriculum for Excellence and covering the whole age span of post compulsory education. 2. Adult learning is life-wide. It covers the personal, work, family and community aspects of living. 3. Adult learning is learner-centred. The educational process builds around the interests and motives of the learner.
