Lifelong Learning UK (LLUK)

The Department for Business, Innovation and Skills has announced that Lifelong Learning UK (LLUK), the Sector Skills Council (SSC) for the lifelong learning workforce, will not be relicensed as a SSC in its own right. The decision follows a re-licensing review process managed by UK Commission for Employment and Skills (UKCES), who have advised that the responsibilities currently fulfilled by LLUK across England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales are not compatible with the projected level of resources. The footprint responsibilities of the Sector Skills Council (SSC) for Lifelong Learning (LLUK) will be transferred to the Learning and Skills Improvement Service (LSIS) when the SSC ceases to operate from 1st April 2011. http://www.lluk.org/2010/12/relicensing-outcome-announced/
