The European Year devoted to education and lifelong learning is
intended to be one more step towards public awareness of the relevance
of education and lifelong learning not only to Europe but also to every
European citizen. To all of us, learning to learn throughout a whole
life is the key point. Thus, lifelong learning must be integrated in
our daily life and, in this respect, the European Commission has
proposed five different goals to be discussed all over 1996. These
goals are: to promote the acquisition of new contents; to better link
schools and the world of work; to fight against social exclusion; to
master three different languages; and to equalise capital investments
and investments in training. Edith Cresson Key words: Lifelong Learning, European Commission, Education and Work, Competitiveness, Social Exclusion, European Integration. |
