This report gives an overview of the NALA Student Development Fund in 2019 and includes information on:

1. how the fund was used;
2. responses from learners on topics such as what tuition hours per week they would realistically do and how they went about finding a course; and
3. the impact of the fund.

The aim of this report is to share feedback from adult literacy and numeracy learners. NALA does this so we and other organisations can respond appropriately to the needs of learners and to continually improve the quality of our work.

This report is for anyone interested or involved in adult literacy and numeracy provision and adult education in general. The NALA Student Fund is financed by SOLAS, the Further Education and Training Authority of Ireland. Adult Literacy is co-funded by the Irish Government and the European Social Fund (ESF) as part of the ESF Programme for Employability, Inclusion and Learning 2014 – 2020.
