The Collaborative Centre for Adult Learning was launched to help practitioners in different fields improve themselves

01 Aug 2024

The Adult Learning Collaboratory, an initiative by the Institute for Adult Learning (IAL), was officially launched on 1 August in partnership with SkillsFuture Singapore (SSG). The space aims to provide opportunities for enterprises, adult educators and learners to explore the best practices for adult education through upskilling projects and sharing sessions to benefit more Singaporeans. New teaching and learning approaches are being trialled at the Adult Learning Collaboratory for adult learners like digital marketers, junior lawyers and new hawkers. The space is also looking at equipping older learners with skills such as anticipating trends, digital literacy, harnessing artificial intelligence and market analysis. More than 20 partners, including SP’s School of Business, Fei Siong Group and the Singapore Academy of Law, are tapping IAL’s research in jobs, skills and learning to come up with teaching and learning solutions for adult learners.
