ADULT Learners’ Week is a successful UK initiative – and it’s being brought to the Isle of Man for the first time next month.
The week represents a national celebration of the benefits of lifelong learning and offers the opportunity to explore the many types of learning available to adults from all walks of life.
Previous events have seen a range of contributors come together to offer training and services – from dyslexia to cloud computing, and alternative heating to accounting.
Free events will take place from May 18 to 24 at Tower House in Castle Street, Douglas and Tynwald Mills, St John’s.
Adult Learners’ Week in England is run by the National Institute of Adult Continuing Education (NIACE) charity. NIACE have agreed to officially endorse any event held in the Isle of Man but no financial assistance is available as the island is outside its scope.
Darran Kenna, owner and head trainer at Resolve, has therefore reached an agreement with Tower House and Tynwald Mills for events to be hosted using their facilities free of charge.
If you would like more information regarding this event, either with a view to contributing as an organisation or individual, or to find out what event is on and when, contact Darran at Resolve by emailing {mailto:Resolveiom@gmail.com|Resolveiom(at)gmail.com}
