FAREWELL INTERSKOLA! - WHAT NEXT?
Lifelong learningfrom Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (1)
• Lifelong learning, also known as LLL, is the "lifelong, lifewide, voluntary, and self-motivated” pursuit of knowledge for either personal or professional reasons.
• As such, it not only enhances social inclusion, active citizenship and personal development, but also competitiveness and employability.
2
Lifelong learningfrom Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (2)
• The term recognises that learning is not confined to childhood or the classroom, but takes place throughout life and in a range of situations.
• During the last fifty years, constant scientific and technological innovation and change has had a profound effect on learning needs and styles.

Lifelong learningfrom Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (3)
• Learning can no longer be divided into a place and time to acquire knowledge (school) and a place and time to apply the knowledge acquired (the workplace).
• In October 2006 the European Comission published a Communication entitled "Adult learning: It is never too late to learn.“
4
LLL - a single umbrella for education and training programmes
• The European Commission has integrated its various educational and training initiatives under a single umbrella, the Lifelong Learning Programme.
• With a significant budget of nearly €7 billion for 2007 to 2013, the new programme replaces previous education, vocational training and e-Learning programmes, which ended in 2006.
5
There are four sub-programmes focusing on different stages of education and training
and continuing previous programmes:
• Comenius for schools• Erasmus for higher education• Leonardo da Vinci for vocational education
and training• Grundtvig for adult education
6
The proposed choice – Grundtvig
• The Grundtvig programme focuses on the teaching and study needs of those in adult education and alternative education streams, as well as the institutions and organisations delivering these services.
• Supporting lifelong learning and mobility in this way also tackles Europe’s ageing population problem.

Grundtvig - How to participate?
