Strategies of Higher Education Institutions in the Field of Adult Education on the Example of Postgraduate Studies
The dynamics of the labour market and new career models have meant that lifelong learning has grown into a strategic challenge in the field of European education. Among the priorities of the European Higher Education Area is just lifelong education which means the necessity of implementation of lifelong learning objectives at the level of individual EU member countries’ policies. Therefore the purpose of research constituting the core of this work was to verify whether various types of Polish universities are ready to put the ideas of lifelong learning into practice. This knowledge would make it possible to forecast higher education market’s growth, and it might be used by officials shaping educational policy in their strategic and operational activities at the national level as well as by representatives of universities in their work on a daily basis.
