Informed Scotland Innovation Special – dangerous learning & skills!

Posted by admin on Monday, June 1, 2015 · Leave A Comment

We’re excited to publish an Informed Scotland Innovation Special. It was commissioned by College Development Network to support their Emporium of Dangerous Ideas 2015.

The Emporium is ‘a future-orientated education festival that aims to re-establish the importance of dangerous ideas as agents of change in education – to shift the axis of what is possible!’

Karen Lawson, Curator of Dangerous Ideas, calls for everyone who is passionate about education to get involved and ‘innovate and create what really matters’.

CDN commissioned the Special to showcase the Emporium and place it at the heart of the broader innovation agenda across the learning and skills landscape. It pulls together relevant highlights from recent months, making connections between education, business, government and the wider community. It aims to encourage everyone to look beyond the usual places for their inspiration – and dangerous ideas!

The Emporium of Dangerous Ideas takes place across Scotland from 9–19 June 2015. Book to attend an event, or get involved in the discussion – tweet using #dangeroused

“Informed Scotland has become a well-established element of our monitoring role for education and skills policy across the UK. It is one of the few publications that manages to combine a high quality overview of the education, skills, business and labour market information for a nation. There is an understanding of the relationships between these factors that is rarely recognised or captured in such a succinct way. A vital read for all who operate or who aspire to operate in this sector.”

– Patrick Craven, Director of Quality, Policy & Stakeholder Engagement, City & Guilds
