Continuous Learning
What are your thoughts about continuous learning and the future of education?
Welcome to explore the changing world of continuous learning – we will all become lifelong learners in the future.
Nationwide shift to continuous learning – also in the higher education sector
The transformation of the world of work is no longer looming on the horizon but is already here. As bold reforms are needed in the higher education sector to secure the availability of skilled workforce and the continued existence of our welfare state, Tampere Universities have published a statement calling for an overhaul of higher education in Finland.
There are no ready-made answers – we must create them together. We encourage all stakeholders from different facets of society to join our efforts to usher in a new era for our world-renowned higher education system.
