3.9: Lifelong Learning
Expand flexible learning options throughout Canberra. Other Information:
As part of its infrastructure investment in skills development, the ACT Government will expand flexible learning options throughout
Canberra. A greater array of online and blended courses will be offered by the Canberra Institute of Technology. The current
Flexible Learning Centre at Tuggeranong will be expanded, to allow students to enrol at any time and study at their own pace—
at home or at work. This client-driven approach to skills training is a key element in addressing skills shortages and meeting
the ACT’s workforce needs over the coming decades. Lifelong, life-wide learning outside the formal education sector is important,
especially for disengaged citizens. The ACT Government will explore learning opportunities outside the formal education sector,
increasing the use of public libraries as learning venues.
