AIM

The aim of the EPALE platform is to improve the quality of adult education in Europe by publishing contents aimed to reach this goal and to spread information on current trends and development guidelines in adult education in Slovenia and in Europe.

 

OBJECTIVES

The goal of the EPALE platform is to be the main online hub for adult learning in Europe.

 

DESCRIPTION

EPALE is a multi-lingual community of educators, training coaches, researchers, academics, mentors, policy makers, decision makers, volunteers and all those who actively work in the adult learning.

The members of the community exchange contents related to adult education. The functionality of the website allows them to connect with colleagues in adult learning from all across Europe. They can communicate under specific themes where the content is structured according to the topic or can ask for participation in the so-called private space on the EPALE platform, where they can organise discussions, upload documents, share news, etc. The partner search tool allows them to form business relationships.

The platform allows publication of news on current topics in adult learning in Slovenia and elsewhere in Europe. It also includes an informational centre with published resources that include good practices, important documents, reports and other interesting publications. The blog allows the portal users to express their opinions and views on selected topics. The event calendar shows seminars, conferences and other educational events.

The partner search allows the participants to present their organisation or to contact guest mentors or new project partners.

The role of the SIAE in this project:

  • To motivate the website users for active participation;
