Learner Forum

What is the Learner Forum?
The Forum is a group of adult learners who are working to change and improve education.  It aims to make sure your views on education and learning are heard so professionals understand how to improve.  We want the Forum to make a real difference to the way learning happens.

Am I eligible for the Learner Forum?
If you are a student enrolled on a Redbridge Institute of Adult Education course, then you can apply.

We are looking for 12 members who reflect a diverse range of backgrounds, ages and types and levels of learning.  So, whatever your age or experience, we’d really like to hear from you.

You don’t need to be an expert in how the adult education policy works, you just have to be an expert in what it is like to be a learner in adult education and bring your experience with you!  We will provide you with the training and support you need to feel confident in your role.

Why should I get involved?
Being a member of the Forum gives you the opportunity to make a big difference by sharing your own experience.  The Forum will give a real voice for change.  We believe that it is crucial in promoting the learner voice in policy development and in achieving improvements.
