Context
FLLLEX
• Growing interest in LLL at the European level (and thus
national level)
• Evolving definition towards greater emphasis on
‘employability’
• Process on various routes: E.C. + Bologna Process
• Growing role for (nationally funded) higher education
Context
European Commission
FLLLEX
2001
“All learning activity undertaken throughout life, with the aim
of improving knowledge, skills and competences within a
personal, civic, social and/or employment-related perspective”
European Commission, 2001
‘Making a European area of lifelong learning a reality’
FLLLEX
2006
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.”
COM, 2006
- In relation to the Lisbon Agenda -
Context
European Commission
FLLLEX
2009
“All EU countries recognise lifelong learning ‘from cradle to
grave’ as a key factor for growth, jobs and social inclusion.”
European Commission, E & T programme 2010, 2009
‘Key competences for a changing world’
Context
European Commission
FLLLEX
2010
Lifelong learning is to be regarded as a principle underpinning
the entire framework - learning in all contexts and at all
levels – general & vocational education, higher education.
European Commission’s work programme 2020 & ET 2020
Context
European Commission
FLLLEX
Context
Bologna Process
• Prague 2001: LLL as key instrument for the successful
implementation of the Bologna process (mention of RPL)
• Bergen 2005: NQF, learning outcomes, intermediate QF
within the first cycle, EQF
• London 2007: very explicit in taking into account the
importance of LLL when choosing the action lines to achieve
the ultimate Bologna aim: creation of EHEA
• Leuven/LLN 2009: flexible learning paths need to support
lifelong learning to increase access to HE

FLLLEX
EUA Charter for LLL
• ‘Universities’ are mainly involved in programmes for
continuous education
• Main focus of the ‘Charter’: expectations from HE & how
governments can help HE to meet those
Context
Initiatives of stakeholders
FLLLEX
EUA Charter for LLL
Universities’ commitments:
• Widening access and lifelong learning in their institutional
strategies
• Providing education and learning to a diversified student
population
• Adapting study programmes in order to respond to
learners’ needs
• Providing adequate guidance and counselling & RPL
Context
Initiatives of stakeholders
FLLLEX
EUA Charter for LLL
Governments’ commitments:
• Removing legal obstacles that prevent learners from
returning to higher education
• Ensuring autonomy and developing incentives for LLL
universities
• Encouraging partnerships at regional level
• Informing and encouraging citizens to take advantage of
LLL
Context
Initiatives of stakeholders
FLLLEX
EUA Charter for LLL
• ‘Universities’ have a very specific focus. Are all stakeholders
well-represented in this Charter?
• “The major problem remains that lifelong learners tend to
be those who have already done well in initial education,
although they are those who did not stand most to gain.”
K. Larsen and D. Istance, Centre for Educational Research and Innovation (CERI)
• Profession-oriented Higher Education plays another major
role.
Context
Initiatives of stakeholders
FLLLEX
Profession-oriented HE plays another major role.
• Direct link with work field, employability,…
• Broader in profile of learners
• Pivotal role towards both EQF 5 and 7
• Regional involvement

Interim results
Stakeholders: Learners
FLLLEX
• Learners are contacted via HEI
• Learners are approached in English
• 904 participants (goal is 4000)
• Results are preliminary
Interim results
Stakeholders: Learners
FLLLEX
• Learners in all but one country cite a lack of support from
their employer
• Short term courses are popular (above long term
programmes)
• Long term programmes are investment in a new career,
short term courses serve current employer
• Time to graduate/finish takes longer without support from
employer (e.g. personal development plan)
• Learners prefer time for LLL during work above a long study
leave
Interim results
Stakeholders: Businesses
FLLLEX
• Businesses contact via HEI (close contact?)
• 174 participants (goal is 400)
Interim results
Stakeholders: Businesses
FLLLEX
• Businesses are not aware of the difference formal vs. non
formal learning
• Businesses are not aware of the offer in a HEI (information
deficit)
• Businesses seem to react more on what is offered than on
what is available
• Businesses target individual employees rather than groups
• Allowing employees to participate is either a reward for past
performance or to upgrade competences for the future
• Businesses are ambiguous about LLL because it may stimulate
an employee to leave the company
• Businesses tend to disregard formal learning since it serves
more the individual employee. Non formal learning serves
more the company
Interim results
Stakeholders: Training providers
FLLLEX
• Mapping exercise in 9 countries conducted by HEIs
• Huge diversity in the LLL landscape
• 5 main categories
• HEI
• Adult Learning Center
• Private Training Provider
• Public provider, specific group focused
• Sectoral organisation

Implications for HEIs
FLLLEX
• HEIs receive a number of ‘policy hooks’. Are they willing to
take the bait?
• HEIs remain unaware of their position as a ‘training
provider’ in the (wider) region.
• HEIs seem unaware of the information deficit businesses
experience. Is the Bologna Process an issue for businesses?
• HEIs need to provide short and flexible programmes. Are
they up to the challenge? Do they have a strategy?

  • 5. Context European Commission FLLLEX 2001 “All learning activity undertaken throughout life, with the aim of improving knowledge, skills and competences within a personal, civic, social and/or employment-related perspective” European Commission, 2001 ‘Making a European area of lifelong learning a reality’
  • 6. FLLLEX 2006 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.” COM, 2006 - In relation to the Lisbon Agenda - Context European Commission
  • 7. FLLLEX 2009 “All EU countries recognise lifelong learning ‘from cradle to grave’ as a key factor for growth, jobs and social inclusion.” European Commission, E & T programme 2010, 2009 ‘Key competences for a changing world’ Context European Commission
  • 8. FLLLEX 2010 Lifelong learning is to be regarded as a principle underpinning the entire framework - learning in all contexts and at all levels – general & vocational education, higher education. European Commission’s work programme 2020 & ET 2020 Context European Commission

  • 14. FLLLEX EUA Charter for LLL • ‘Universities’ have a very specific focus. Are all stakeholders well-represented in this Charter? • “The major problem remains that lifelong learners tend to be those who have already done well in initial education, although they are those who did not stand most to gain.” K. Larsen and D. Istance, Centre for Educational Research and Innovation (CERI) • Profession-oriented Higher Education plays another major role. Context Initiatives of stakeholders
  • 15. FLLLEX Profession-oriented HE plays another major role. • Direct link with work field, employability,… • Broader in profile of learners • Pivotal role towards both EQF 5 and 7 • Regional involvement Context
  • 16. Contents • Context of LLL and Profession-oriented HE • European Commission • Bologna Process • Initiatives of stakeholders • FLLLEX: goals • Interim results • Context analysis • Stakeholders: learners, businesses, training providers and HEIs • Self-assessment tool for HEIs • Implications for HEIs • Questions?

  • 22. Interim results Context analysis FLLLEX Policy Hooks ‘a State or EU policy, directive or piece of legislation that legitimises an action or strategy by an individual HEI’ R. Thorn and A. Stokes, 2010 ‘Report on Work Package 1 (FLLLEX project)’
  • 23. Interim results Context analysis Comparative Matrix for Intensity of LLL Policy Implementation in FLLLEX Countries FLLLEX
  • 24. Interim results Context analysis Policy hooks and institutional control or freedom of action FLLLEX
  • 26. Interim results Stakeholders: Learners FLLLEX • Learners are contacted via HEI • Learners are approached in English • 904 participants (goal is 4000) • Results are preliminary
  • 27. Interim results Stakeholders: Learners FLLLEX • Learners in all but one country cite a lack of support from their employer • Short term courses are popular (above long term programmes) • Long term programmes are investment in a new career, short term courses serve current employer • Time to graduate/finish takes longer without support from employer (e.g. personal development plan) • Learners prefer time for LLL during work above a long study leave
  • 28. Interim results Stakeholders: Businesses FLLLEX • Businesses contact via HEI (close contact?) • 174 participants (goal is 400)
  • 29. Interim results Stakeholders: Businesses FLLLEX • Businesses are not aware of the difference formal vs. non formal learning • Businesses are not aware of the offer in a HEI (information deficit) • Businesses seem to react more on what is offered than on what is available • Businesses target individual employees rather than groups • Allowing employees to participate is either a reward for past performance or to upgrade competences for the future • Businesses are ambiguous about LLL because it may stimulate an employee to leave the company • Businesses tend to disregard formal learning since it serves more the individual employee. Non formal learning serves more the company
  • 30. Interim results Stakeholders: Training providers FLLLEX • Mapping exercise in 9 countries conducted by HEIs • Huge diversity in the LLL landscape • 5 main categories • HEI • Adult Learning Center • Private Training Provider • Public provider, specific group focused • Sectoral organisation

FLLLEX
  • 32. Implications for HEIs FLLLEX • HEIs receive a number of ‘policy hooks’. Are they willing to take the bait? • HEIs remain unaware of their position as a ‘training provider’ in the (wider) region. • HEIs seem unaware of the information deficit businesses experience. Is the Bologna Process an issue for businesses? • HEIs need to provide short and flexible programmes. Are they up to the challenge? Do they have a strategy?
  • 33. Contents • Context of LLL and Profession-oriented HE • European Commission • Bologna Process • Initiatives of stakeholders • FLLLEX: goals • Interim results • Context analysis • Stakeholders: learners, businesses, training providers and HEIs • Self-assessment tool for HEIs • Implications for HEIs • Questions?
