The Open Learning Foundation (OLF) was created at a time when Higher Education in the UK was starting to experience rapid expansion. The government was debating a policy to create more universities and at the same time many educationalists were discussing learning techniques and how changes in learning would affect teaching patterns.

These two events provided the catalyst to provide a cost-effective way to develop flexible learning materials and staff development in their use.

The challenge remains with the universities to provide a quality learning experience without significant increases in the income they receive. The OLF seeks to help in achieving this major change in the educational pattern of the UK.

The University and College Union (UCU) represents more than 120,000 academics, lecturers, trainers, instructors, researchers, managers, administrators, computer staff, librarians and postgraduates in universities, colleges, prisons, adult education and training organisations across the UK.

UCU is the largest post-school union in the world: a force working for educators and education that employers and the government cannot ignore. 

It was formed on 1 June 2006 by the amalgamation of two strong partners - the Association of University Teachers (AUT) and NATFHE-the University & College Lecturers' Union - who shared a long history of defending and advancing educators' employment and professional interests.
