Open Academia Publishing Services
The Open Access movement has changed the world of publishing forever. As Open Access publishing evolves and gains momentum, traditional publishing houses have a hard time keeping up. The need for author-friendly, flexible and highly configurable systems, has left many publishers in the backwaters. More and more academic societies are now turning to open source technologies to manage digital publishing on their own. And that is where Open Academia comes in.
Open Academia is ALT’s publishing partner for Research in Learning Technology.
Ufi VocTech Trust
When people thrive in work, everybody benefits, so at Ufi we champion the power of technology to improve skills for work and deliver better outcomes for all. We do this by providing investment, grant funding, advocacy and support for the development and deployment of vocational technology across all parts of the UK skills system. We help unlock potential in the communities, sectors, and places currently underserved by mainstream provision, helping ensure everyone is included and no one is left behind. Join us on our mission to #GetAdultsLearning.
The ALT Award for ‘Use of Technology in Vocational Education’ is awarded in partnership with Ufi VocTech Trust.
