Learning and Skills Council's 'Bite Size' campaign returns

Skillset, the national training organisation for the television and film industry, have noted that the Learning and Skills Council (LSC) has announced plans for its second national 'Bite Size' campaign.
Marking its first anniversary on April 2, the 'Bite Size' campaign was launched to promote and fund learning and training for young people and adults outside higher education.
Although not targeted specifically at the television and film industry, the LSC aims to raise participation and attainment through high-quality education and training.
The first 'Bite Size' campaign to attract people back into learning was launched by the Council shortly after its creation last year and was a huge success. Around 70,000 people took part in free courses of one, two or three hours on a wide range of subjects and in a variety of venues.
Many of those taking part had undertaken no learning since leaving school and the campaign achieved its aim of demonstrating that learning new skills could be rewarding and fun.
'Bite Size' returns this summer with introductory courses being run throughout England between May 20 and June 21.
