titles on International issues |

This collection seeks to learn the lessons of experiences of building a European dimension to lifelong learning. It includes analysis of EU education and training; accounts by managers and practitioners of European projects, ESF programmes and transnational projects; a series of ‘how-to’ chapters covering topics such as ‘how to write a successful proposal’; and a guide to resources and information sources. This is a work of reference for the busy professional and a source of know-how for managers and others involved in developing the European dimension of adult learning.

Reviews
‘Field sets out the aim of the volume as being “a resource for professionals in adult learning who want to increase their knowledge of the EU’s role in their area, and develop their capacity for benefiting from European Programmes”. In this he and his authors have certainly succeeded.’ (Alan Tait, Open University)
