A very Happy New Year from the Higher Education, Skills and Work-based Learning team.

I’m very pleased to welcome Mandy Crawford-Lee (Director of Policy and Operations at UVAC) to the Editorial team of UVAC’s official journal. Mandy joins the team as an Associate Editor, and as well as seeing papers through the review process will provide a closer link to UVAC and its aims.

I’d like to invite all UVAC members to have a closer look at the latest issue of HESWBL, a special issue focusing on ‘Enterprise and Entrepreneurship education in HE and work-based learning’. All UVAC members are able to access this special issue, and all other HESWBL issue as part of their membership.

The next special issue of 2018 is still accepting manuscripts. Examining Work Based & Vocational Education as Catalysts for Sustainable Development, the call for papers can be viewed in full on the journal homepage – http://www.emeraldgrouppublishing.com/products/journals/journals.htm?id=heswbl
