| + | ==Lifelong Perspective on Education, Learning or Training== |
| + | From a lifelong learning perspective, it is a short time people spend in educational institutions. Outside of formal learning settings they continue self-development, gain new insights and shape their personalities. This view on learning as a continuous, transformative and diverse process is becoming more important for societies in transitions. |
| + | |
| + | Those who see themselves as learners must therefore be particularly competent in reflecting on and articulating their own learning desires and need the ability to learn independently of an accompanying educational structure. Competence-oriented educational programs therefore not only convey content, but also always support the development of these transversal competences. |
| + | |
| + | Continous learners are also dependent on educational opportunities that are open at all stages of life. Non-formal education in particular has something to offer here, as it is not tied to formal training paths, can respond to current needs and can therefore also react under conditions of social and demographic change. |

| + | Human-centered social change requires individuals feeling capable to address challenges and to co-create a situation in an often ambigous and open context. A transversal understanding of learning is becoming crucial in here, helping learners in mobilising knowledge, skills and attitudes acquired in diverse contexts and social roles. In this perspective the meaning of competence "involves the ability to meet complex demands, by drawing on and mobilizing psychosocial resources (including skills and attitudes) in a particular context" ([http://www.oecd.org/pisa/35070367.pdf OECD]). |

| + | Competence-oriented education is a systematic approach that focuses on the abilities of individuals and aims to strengthen them comprehensively. Learning becomes a partnership between educators and learners and a cooperative social process. The approach combines knowledge, practical skills and attitudes and works closely with real-life challenges. It integrates the training of important transversal skills that are necessary in many social roles and situations. |

− | Beyond all missionary words we need to acknowledge, that competencelearning is not always easy to implement. It is often a disruptive element in the learning culture of a school, of an academy or an organization. Changes are never easy and dilemmas appear between old proven and new risky ways of educating and unclarity about how they might go together. For instance:
