Plans for the next generation of programmes gather pace
Posted: June 16, 2011 Filed under: Lifelong Learning Programme Leave a comment
As you may be aware, the current Lifelong Learning Programme (LLP) will officially come to an end in 2013 and the European Commission and the LLP National Agencies have been working together to develop plans for its replacement.
The plans are being formulated on the back of a great deal of consultation undertaken across the participating countries as to what the programme has achieved since it began in 2007. I’ve put together this overview of two key elements to this; the interim evaluation, which looks back at successes so far, and the public consultation which makes recommendations for the future.
