Abstract: Abstract Part-time undergraduate higher education is central to lifelong learning and to national skills policies, promoted by the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD, 2012) and others to transform lives and to drive economies forward by providing high-level skills and thus enhancing a country’s competitiveness and economic strength. Part-time provision of higher education is significant for higher education policy too. It can contribute to a more flexible and diverse higher education sector and to help broaden higher education access and social mobility, thus enhancing social justice.
