Adult participation in lifelong learning: education for reducing skill gaps with perspective for better employability in selected European countries
As determined by European Commission (2010) in Europe 2020 Strategy Target on Education, the EU-28 level of adults’ participation in lifelong learning is targeted with 15% by 2020. Recently, according to official survey data, this indicator has confirmed an increase in majority of European countries, being for the EU-28 at 9.6% in 2016 and 10.9% in 2017. Unfortunately, in some of the European countries it is still at a very low level. Moreover, in number of more or less developed EU countries it is in 2017 still below 10% with a decreasing tendency, e.g. in Spain, Cyprus, Ireland, Poland, Slovakia, Croatia and Romania. Croatia fall from 3% in 2016 to 2.5% in 2017, and the FYR of Macedonia decreased in the same period from 2.9% to 2.4%. Belgium, Germany, Italy and some others are below the EU-28 average, even though having highly developed economies. It might be assumed that nowadays the workforce should use the digital society advantages to increase the noticed skill shortage as compared to the labour market demand. Using possibilities of lifelong learning people from the workforce enable better literacy, better reading, writing and maths skills, as well as better language and communication skills. In such a way, the workforce improves its mobility and achieves better employability. Using statistical data exploration, cluster and regression analysis, the paper investigates the economic and the information and communications technology (ICT) development indicators that influence the adults’ participation in lifelong learning indicator. Regarding the relevant variables, the clusters of European countries are recognized, and authors are trying to evaluate the possibility of realizing the targeted value of 15% by each of the countries, as the European Commission projected in its documents.
