Home / News / Webinar: Outreach in Adult Education – Role and Challenges of National Policies

As part of its implOED project activities, EAEA is organising a webinar on outreach in adult education from the perspective of national policies.

The webinar organised by the European Association for the Education of Adults, EAEA, will be held on 7th of November at 11.00 CET. The webinar will focus on the role and challenges of national policies in planning and implementing outreach strategies in adult education.

The webinar is organised in cooperation with the ET2020 Working Group on adult learning. The participation is open to everyone interested. In particular, the National Coordinators for European Agenda for Adult Learning, local, regional and national policy-makers as well as adult learning stakeholders working at the meso-level are encouraged to take part.

The participants of the webinar are expected to receive increased knowledge about good practices on reaching out to disadvantaged learners, deeper understanding of the challenges in implementing outreach strategies at different levels and in different sectors, and new ideas on how outreach can be applied to workplace-based learning.
