Welcome to the website for the United Kingdom Arts and Design Institutions Association (ukadia).

2010 saw the National Arts Learning Network (NALN) incorporate into ukadia. NALN was a Lifelong Learning Network (LLN), part of a HEFCE initiative which was funded over four years to improve progression of vocational learners to Higher Education.

Sharing the same membership of specialist colleges, the merger offers greater opportunities for ukadia’s network of institutions to further strengthen its role in shaping the growth and diversity of the UK’s creative and cultural industries workforce.
