Be inspired this Adult Learner’s Week

Adult Learners’ Week is the UK’s largest festival of learning and is a celebration of the energy and inspiration that adults bring to their learning. It takes place from Saturday 9th May to Friday 15th May 2009, marking its eighteenth year.  The week of events aims to inspire adults to have a go – whether it is learning a new skill, learning for fun or learning to enhance your career opportunities.

Learning holidays specialist GoLearnTo.com has a new take on learning by urging its customers to combine lessons with leisure on a holiday course.

Forget images of stuffy classrooms and strict teachers that gives most adult learners the fear – replace that with images of sitting under a palm tree with your toes in the sand learning Spanish in South America or walking around the famous Boqueria market in Barcelona picking fresh seasonal ingredients for a cooking lesson – beats a home economics class learning to boil an egg any day!

The centre of Future Studies says that learning holidays will be the number 1 growth niche market over the next 5 years as more and more of us are swapping beach holidays for trips that educate and provide new experiences.

Society is changing, a zeitgeist culture is driving a need for self fulfilment, self expression and status and a holiday course satisfies that need as you return home fulfilled with a new skill that you can ‘show off’ and with a 66% growth in hobbies and new skills trips over the past 5 years, the trend is clear.

GoLearnTo.com  is the world’s largest portal for all your learning holiday needs. You can go learn to speak 14 different languages in 30 countries worldwide, learn to cook, surf, scuba dive, dance, make jewellery, fight like a gladiator, take photographs, horse ride, play guitar or even make your own beauty products – to name but a few.
