The workshop firstly engaged the attendees to consider what is the school:
And 2nd who is the learner?

The workshop examined the notion of

the journey of lifelong
and lifewide learning.

The journey of learning should be needs led and learner centred rather than being linear.
The journey of learning should be constructed around a community hub with an emphasis on collaborative learning.
Multiple intelligences and different learning styles need to be accommodated within the journey of learning.
![Page 8: A model relationship in further education training Feilte 2014](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052623/559aacbb1a28abf2688b45d1/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
It is possible to have smaller learning groups if we use peer learning.
Training and education should be integrated with combined teachers and trainers.
Learning should be underpinned by self development, metacognition, and critical thinking.

Education should be flexible and responsive to learning needs.
Need for greater emphasis on the qualitative aspects of learning
The middle, i.e. second level education, is out of sync with whole-of-life learning.
Education is for the total person.

The learning Is presently disjointed.
There is an increasingly important question: Education for what?
Overemphasis in further education and training on preparation for jobs.

The REGIONAL EU project is conducting comparative analysis on policy making methodologies in adult learning.
For this workshop if we look at the most recent policy document on adult learning, White Paper on Adult Education – Learning for Life (2000) what does it say that reflects the above comments (3 quotes).
![Page 12: A model relationship in further education training Feilte 2014](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052623/559aacbb1a28abf2688b45d1/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
lifelong learning is an:- "….All purposeful learning activity, whether formal or informal, undertaken on an ongoing basis with the aim of improving knowledge, skills and competence." (White Paper on Adult Education – Learning for Life, 2000, p.56)
![Page 13: A model relationship in further education training Feilte 2014](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052623/559aacbb1a28abf2688b45d1/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Real commitment to a strategy of lifelong learning raises fundamental questions about the nature of learning and the validation of such learning. The "lifewide" nature of lifelong learning accepts the reality of learning in a multiplicity of sites and through multiple sources. (Learning for Life, 2000, p.154).

The White Paper on Adult Education –Learning for Life (2000) highlights that “ … many workers in the community and voluntary sector with expertise and experience in this area but who lack the professional recognition of a formal qualification”.
