ECHILD now includes the ILR. This is a mandatory, ongoing data collection system used by the UK government to track learners in publicly-funded Further Education (FE) and skills training. It acts as a digital record for funding, monitoring quality, and measuring success, essentially showing who is studying, what they are learning, and what outcomes they achieve.

Book your place now

Dave Thomson, Claire Crawford and Chiara Cavaglia will give an overview of the ILR and its strengths and weaknesses, and give examples of how the data have been used in research projects. Attendees will be able to learn whether and how they might be able to use ILR within their own ECHILD research.
