The Virtual Learning Network (VLN) supports the concept of classrooms without walls, where students and educators have the flexibility to connect with their classes 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Where a rich and diverse range of courses, programmes and activities, from early childhood through to tertiary, are offered by New Zealand-based educators.

This site brokers the connections between teachers and learners; joining clusters, schools, groups and individuals who are learning through online programes using asynchronous and synchronous technologies for curriculum support.

New factsheets on adult learning and Pasifika in tertiary ed
 

Non-formal and formal learning – Adults in education

This fact sheet looks at adults aged 25 to 64 engaged in some form of study in 2006. In particular, it includes new information on the total rate at which adults participated in non-formal learning. The fact sheet also looks at hours spent in non-formal learning, and whether adults were doing this for work-related or personal reasons, and explores how these differ by gender, age, education level, and labour force status.

It can be found on the Education Counts website.

Pasifika peoples in tertiary education in New Zealand: 2008

This is edition three in an annual series on Pasifika tertiary education students. There is an associated set of tables available on the Pasifika education statistics page on Education Counts.

This factsheet includes information on Pasifika tertiary education students, the qualifications students are taking, where they are studying, field of study, student allowances and loans and other important characteristics of Pasifika students. Also included is information on Pasifika employees in industry training and some comparisons with international students from the Pacific.
