Commission recognize “that a change is needed in the wayeducation and training is provided (flexible timetables, recognition of prior learning and more attractive training)”.Trainers, teachers and Guidance counsellors must have the skills to offer attractive training and guidance orientation.The Partnership of TOP + it’s committed to develop a brand new solution to help all Member States (MS) andNorway to cope with a common challenge (low participation of older adults in lifelong learning programmes), with anew strategy, which has not yet addressed: reinforce the skills of older adults trainers and teaches.TOP + Project it’s target trainers and teachers that wish up-skill or re-skill it’s competencies to better address olderadults training need.
