EUCEN 2015 - 47th Conference of the European Conitnuing Education Network - Building Bridges together between HE & VET - Diversity in learning


Date :  du 03-06-2015 au 05-06-2015

Lieu :  Istanbul

Organisation :  European University Continuing Education Network (EUCEN)


Programme : 
The 2015 EUCEN Annual Conference will focus on building bridges together between higher education and vocational education, diversity in learning forms and partnerships, work on the types and forms of partnerships, share the best practises and explore the changes implied by this learning paradigm shift i.e. changes for universities and changes for diverse actors.

The three days long conference in Istanbul, where the continents meet, will offer a novel approach for Lifelong Learning (LLL) by unifying societies and discussing how to develop a strong link between the actors, the concepts and the applications.


      Learning processes today are changing. Lifelong learning includes a combination of formal, informal and non-formal learning. In order to value and recognise different learning outcomes, universities as lifelong learning institutions have a significant role in creating links with different actors and bridges between different sectors and stakeholders i.e. policy makers, social partners, professional bodies, VET providers, private and public sectors. Greater collaboration and engagement with different actors is crucial.
