Editorial Reviews

Review
"They ask how the colleges have fared; how have they been shaped by the new arrangements for funding, governance, inspection and the new qualifications framework; what those running the colleges and working in them make of the changes; what difference the re-definition to lifelong learning make; and what the prospects are for the new millenium."

From the Back Cover

After more than a century of being undervalued, further education has been thrust into the limelight. How have the colleges fared? How have they been shaped by the new arrangements for funding, governance, inspection and the new qualifications framework? What do those running the colleges and working in them make of the changes? What difference will the re-definition to lifelong learning make and what are the colleges' prospects for the new millennium?
Further Education Reformed is the definitive account of where further education has got to and where it might be heading. Containing specially commissioned papers by the leading figures in the field of further education, this book draws the situation as it is now and looks forward to the developments of the coming years. It will be vital reading for anyone concerned with further education in particular, and education in general, whether as a policy-maker, governor, manager, teacher, employer or student.
