NIACE is sponsoring an independent Commission of Inquiry to examine the relationship between lifelong learning and technological change.  The Commission will call upon the public to provide evidence focusing on how being able to access and use new information and communications technologies can help young people in their learning.

Commissioner Nick Stuart said, “The rapid and accelerating pace of technological change is reshaping people’s lives in many ways. Yet society remains divided by both access to, and understanding of, information and communication technologies. Greater understanding is needed of how education and training can make most use of the varying technological skills that different learners bring with them. And of how the benefits of increasing the use of technology in learning can be shared equitably to overcome the digital divide.”
