Continuing education

Coverbild: BWP 1/2018

Lifelong learning is considered to be a key prerequisite for keeping pace with the shift that is taking place in the economy and in society and for taking an active part in helping to shape change. Continuing education is continuing to grow in significance in the wake of technological innovations, alterations to employee structures and the shortage of skilled workers. What sorts of provision and forms of learning are required in order to overcome these challenges? The articles in this issue of BWP address both these and other issues.
