The Managing Information Across Partners (MIAP) database

Managing Information Across Partners (MIAP) will streamline the collection, handling and sharing of information on learning and achievement for education and training organisations. It will enable excellent services to be made available to individuals, employers and communities. MIAP's Learner Registration Service will be capable of issuing a Unique Learner Number (ULN) to every person aged 14 and over in education and training, and will allow them to build a lifelong record of their participation and achievements. The LRS was launched in September 2007 with 'early adopter' organisations across England committed to using the service. Wider roll out of the service will commence early in 2008
