About the Project

This Erasmus+ project focuses on equipping adult education centres with the tools, strategies, and digital competencies necessary to meet the needs of 21st-century learners. It aims to modernize the adult education system by supporting institutions and trainers in adapting their governance models, educational offerings, and technological integration, while also promoting a stronger European identity among adult learners. Through tailored support and innovation, the project addresses real challenges faced by adult education providers across Europe, especially in vulnerable and underrepresented communities.
