Abstract
The paper is dealing with present Lifelong Learning in Europe through the current state of ELLEIEC European project (Enhancing Lifelong Learning for the Electrical and Information Engineering Community) [1]. ELLEIEC project is the follow-up of EIE-Surveyor TN which aims at acting both as an observatory and a proposition force for the evolution in the interdisciplinary fields of Electrical and Information Engineering (EIE), of engineering curricula through the implementation of the Bologna process [2]-[3]. The first objective of the ELLEIEC project is to develop a virtual European Centre for Entrepreneurship Education in Electrical and Information Engineering with an internal e-learning assessment offer which will be a reference point for any applicant in the Lifelong Learning framework. The second objective is to study through an experiment and a survey of the mutual recognition process to gather information on good practice in the design of international cooperation at both master and bachelor levels. At the same time, a study will be undertaken across different European countries on how to incorporate the accreditation of prior Lifelong Learning into the PhD process which will allow engineers within a company to move back into education to continue their studies and prepare and validate a doctoral thesis. This benchmark will be used to analyse the recognition systems required to ensure the appropriate credit transfer for prior informal learning.Items in DSpace are protected by copyright, with all rights reserved, unless otherwise indicated.
