The government have a Bikeability course, which is aimed at children
Pretty sure that it's aimed at adults too.
Can adults take part in Bikeability?
Yes, adults can take part in Bikeability. The skills taught as part of Bikeability will last a lifetime, and it is never too late to learn.
Your local authority might have an adult cycle training offer. They might call it Bikeability, or refer to the National Standard for cycle training, the standard upon which Bikeability is based.

My name is Craig, and I am a doctor doing a masters degree in sports medicine. Being a keen cyclist, I wanted to do my research into something useful.
Adult cyclists are dying on roads every day, and I feel not enough is being done to address this with regards to cycling awareness, or raising the issue of safety perception amongst adult cyclists.
The government have a Bikeability course, which is aimed at children - but there is no accredited national course for adult cyclists.
Do people think this could be interesting area to look into? Would people be interested in attending a course aimed at adults?
Any ideas, suggestions, comments, and sarcasm is welcome.
Thanks for your time.
