2. LIFELONG LEARNING PROGRAMME
The Lifelong Learning Programme for Community Action in the Field of Life-
long Learning (the Lifelong Learning Programme – LLP) has been established
by the Decision 70/006/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council
of 5 November 006. The general objective of the LLP programme is to con-
tribute through lifelong learning to the development of the Community as an
advanced knowledge society, with sustainable economic development, more
and better jobs and greater social cohesion. It aims to foster interaction,
cooperation and mobility between education and training systems within the
Community, so that they become a world quality reference.
The Lifelong Learning Programme comprises four sectoral programmes
on school education (Comenius), higher education (Erasmus), vocational
training (Leonardo da Vinci) and adult education (Grundtvig), and is
completed by a transversal programme focusing on policy cooperation,
languages, information and communication technology and dissemination
and exploitation of results. Finally, a Jean Monnet programme focuses on
European integration and support for certain key institutions and associa-
tions active in the field.

Leonardo da Vinci programme focuses on the process on enhancing the
attractiveness, quality and performance of vocational education and
training (VET) systems, improving transparency, information and guidance

ing the European dimension. The aims of the programme are to establish

European citizens to acquire new skills, knowledge and qualifications and
have them recognised across borders. It also supports innovations and
improvements in vocational education and training systems and practices.

5. Partnerships
A Leonardo da Vinci Partnership is a framework for small–scale coopera-
tion activities between organisations working in the field of VET which
are cooperating on themes of mutual interest to the participating organi-
sations. Projects can focus more on the active participation of trainees,
while others will concentrate on the cooperation between teachers, train-
ers or VET–professionals.
The cooperation includes not only VET schools or institutions but also
enterprises, social partners or other VET stakeholders. They can cooperate
at national, regional or local level, but also at sector level, such as within
VET–fields or economic sectors.
· Partnerships consist of a minimum of 3 partners each located in a dif-
ferent country participating in the LLP, at least one of which must be an
EU Member State.
· Duration of project – years.
Preparatory Visits
The objective of the action is to help institutions eligible for the Leonardo
da Vinci programme wishing to establish a new Mobility, Partnership or
Transfer of Innovation project to contact and meet suitable partner institu-
tions and/or develop a work plan in order to prepare the grant application.
The visit may take either of the following forms: a visit to a potential part-
ner institution in another country participating in the Lifelong Learning
Programme or participation in a partner–finding ‘contact seminar’ organ-
ised by a National Agency.
· Duration of visit – minimum , maximum 5 days.

ready been laid in 953, when the Higher School of Edu-
cation was opened in Opava to train teachers for years
5 to 8 (known as the ‘second stage’) of primary schools.
The newly founded University of Ostrava drew on this
rich tradition in order to provide higher education in
the humanities, marking the culmination of long–term
efforts to bring a more complete range of academic ac-
tivity to this densely populated area in which technical
and industrial education had previously received pref-
erential treatment. The University provides higher edu-
cation at its Faculties of Philosophy, Education, Science
and its Medical–Social Faculty, as well as at its Institute
for Artistic Studies. The degree programmes offered by
the University include a wide range of Bachelor’s, Mas-
ter’s, follow–up Master’s and doctoral degrees.
