Collaboration in lifelong learning
Continuing education is viewed as one of the fastest growing areas of higher education. The Lifelong Learning Leaders Retreat, sponsored by the American Association for Adult and Continuing Education and supported by the W.K. Kellog Foundation, organized in 1982 a meeting which brought together 20 organizations concerned with continuing education to identify critical issues and to determine directions for dealing with them. Alternatives were explored and recommendations issued which could lead to the resolution of the four major issues which were identified: 1) collaborative effort among adult education associations and groups on legislative matters affecting them, 2) increasing awareness of the importance of lifelong learning by the general public, educational institutions and teachers, 3) a national/federal policy on lifelong learning, 4) restructuring and reallocation of strategies to respond to future and emerging technologies
