Abstract
This chapter presents evidence on participation in work-based adult learning and individuals’ willingness to avail themselves of learning opportunities across countries and population groups. It illustrates factors at the individual, firm and system level associated with the likelihood of individuals disengaging from adult learning through a lack of participation or interest. The chapter reviews the barriers preventing willing individuals from participating in adult learning. It concludes by developing estimates of the likely learning losses workers have experienced as a result of COVID‑19, with a particular emphasis on the impact of the pandemic on disparities in skill development.
