The Learn Welsh programme data is managed by the National Centre for Learning Welsh.
A central database collates information on all learners when they register online to follow a course. This information includes details about the learner (e.g. name, address, date of birth) and the course (e.g. level, location, learning intensity).
The Centre started publishing data for the academic year 2017–2018.
The published data contains information about all the work of the National Centre for Learning Welsh. This includes:
Learn Welsh programmes – community-based, face-to-face and virtual
Learn Welsh schemes for workplaces
Learn Welsh schemes for families
Learn Welsh schemes for young people
The 2024–25 data also includes a different type of provision for the Centre: confidence-raising courses for Welsh speakers who lack confidence in using the language.
The data also includes a range of learning methods, including face-to-face learning, virtual learning, blended learning and self-study.
