AnnotationThere is a growing need to increase skill levels to make sure that as the population gets older people remain healthy and productive. This review. has been commissioned as part of the UK government's Foresight Future of an Ageing Population project. It looks at the benefits of, trends in and barriers to lifelong learning; the proportion of older people engaged in lifelong learning; and how much training older people receive at work (fewer than 7 days a year in 2013). It considers how to support lifelong learning, what challenges are faced, and how this could be financed. (RH)
