Context
Administrative/Biographical history:
The London and South East Region (LASER) Advisory Council for Education and Training was founded in 1945 as the Regional Advisory Council for Technical Education (London and Home Counties). Its role was to provide quality assurance for existing vocational for technical courses, to organise conferences and training and to assist with curriculum development. It became free of local government control in 1989 but was unable to compete in the open market and was forced to close in 1995.
