Flexible learning helps widen access and increase opportunities for learning. It is an inclusive approach which appreciates that every learner has different needs and requires different supports.
Beate Hörr, Vice-President of eucen and Director of the Center for Continuing Education at the University of Mainz (DE) tells us here about this perspective in her institution.
Flexible learning also connects to the adaptation to digital transformation or to the Sustainable Development Goals of institutions.
Tamer Atabarut, member of the Steering Committee of eucen and Managing Director of the Lifelong Learning Center of the Boğaziçi University (TR) introduces this notion in his video.
Sometime we do not have all the time we wish to dedicate to learning. ULLL offers learner the possibility to learn at their own pace.
People do not only learn in formal classrooms. Maybe you want to learn from home or you are learning at work. ULLL allows different environment options to students.
We might need to learn specialised topics very quickly to adapt to job demands. Or we may want to spend time exploring a new area of learning. ULLL offers learners many different possibilities.
From micro-credentials to validation of prior learning or work-based learning, University Lifelong Learning is the flexible way to study in Higher Education to for learners wishing to engage in learning throughout their lives for both personal and professional reasons.
ULLL as a tool to learn whatever you want, whenever and wherever suits you.
