Abstract

A national policy seminar on lifelong learning was a feature of the 1999 Adult Learners Week. A key address was Philip Candy's presentation and critique of the major obstacles to developing a national policy on lifelong learning. This is a slightly abridged version of his address, in which he asks a series of critical questions on objections and concerns relating to the idea of lifelong learning.
