Policy Masterclasses

Attending one of the Campaign's policy masterclasses is an ideal way to update your knowledge of current education and skills policy. Each one-day class, led by a highly respected expert in the field, gives an insight into the latest policy developments and can be shaped to the needs of the delegates. There is a maximum of ten delegates at each masterclass.

Policy Seminars

Our regular informal two-hour policy seminars, held under Chatham House rules, offer an opportunity to analyse and influence policy development through discussion with decision makers and others at the centre of   events. Recent speakers have included senior MPs, leading civil servants, education and skills policy experts, academics and experienced practitioners. The sessions offer opportunities to find out about, critique and discuss the latest policy developments with a group of senior colleagues from across the sector. Our events respond quickly to policy changes and provide analysis for the wide range of organisations who attend.
