Scotland is justifiably proud of its universities. They have risen to the challenges of Covid-19, not only for their own students but also in support of the national recovery effort. But there is more to do as we seek to deepen our sense of civic duty and play our part in economic regeneration. This includes tackling inequalities and addressing skills deficits, particularly those created by a lack of educational opportunity. We will do this through access to full-time courses, upskilling, retraining, accreditation for prior learning, credit accumulation and transfer, and by providing more flexible models of education.
