Background

This survey explored the impact of Coventry Learns (Adult Education Service) courses that were predominately completed in academic year 2024 to 2025. The sample included learners who completed single and multiple courses across a broad range of subject areas which were delivered face to face, either online or in a community venue.

The data was gathered using an online questionnaire which was sent out to approximately 2,000 individuals with email addresses, and eligible permissions, 4 to 6 months after they completed their course of study. The survey generated a sample of 211 returns (response rate of 11%) providing an insight into the difference Coventry Learns made on their lives.

Eighty-three percent of respondents accessed their course via face-to-face delivery in community settings, 9% accessed their course online, and 8% accessed their course through a blended approach of both face-to-face and online learning.
