The main objectives of this project were: • To develop the key competencies of staff in the entire area of lifelong education, specifically within the area of counseling and guidance as well as on conducting workshops on these topics. • To innovate and develop the quality of our educational services for participants of lifelong education programs, specifically towards career guides and counselors. • To implement and be able to pass on a reflective practice, where one model does not fit all, but where approaches and methods can be adjusted to individual and very diverse needs. • To raise the competencies of the leadership to support its staff in creating the innovative changes and raising the quality of the educational services. • To build and strengthen knowledge of European partners for future international activities as well as for sharing and development of good adult educational practice in the field of lifelong education. • To maintain and raise the motivation and job-satisfaction of the staff to ensure a motivated pool of human resources who are committed to the advancement of lifelong learning and adult education at the Faculty of Economics, University of Split.
University of Split, Faculty of Economics, through its Center for lifelong learning and adult education, is strongly involved and highly committed to developing adult education – both formal and informal. This project was intended to additionally contribute to the development of lifelong education programs in a wide spectrum - from the design of educational programs, teaching methods, to the overall management of this area of activity. During 2017-18 we realized, through the project 2017-1-HR01-KA104-035266, a series of activities participation in seminars and job shadowing in cooperation with the partner organization InDialogue. The program proved to be very useful for our needs and purposes, and was implemented very successfully. However, the 3 seminars we attended are only a smaller part of the whole cycle. Therefore, we agreed and applied for this project which would complete the program of key seminars and other complementary activities (job shadowing). This project aims were to really raise to a higher level abilities and capabilities of the trainers of the Faculty of Economics and Business of the University of Split - the Center for lifelong learning in the design and implementation of the activities presented above.
