Abstract(s)

The economic crisis, the need for new skills and the demographic changes have contributed to the recognition that the learning strategies of adults and lifelong learning must play a key role in the policies of competitiveness and employability, social inclusion and active citizenship. Skills will determine competitiveness and will play a crucial and essential role in social cohesion through economic growth and job creation, thus intensifying the need for continuous improvement of skills to meet the growing needs of the labour market in knowledge-based economies (European Commission, 2017; World Economic Forum, 2018).
