Our Mission

To foster close working and understanding between business and higher education so that world-class learning and research can improve the international competitiveness of both sectors and the capabilities of graduates and those already in the workforce.

Our Goals

The Council aims to:

develop an agreed agenda on the learning issues that affect the UK’s global competitiveness, social cohesion and individual development;

commission research so that policy can be better based on evidence;

debate our agenda and research with the Government and its agencies and

work with them and others to effect change.
