  14. Focus on the structure of HE in Europe. The Bologna process.

  15. Structure of University Degree Levels in Spain adapted to Bologna 15 URV FOUNDATION – LIFELONG LEARNING CENTRE | REUS

  16. The Bologna process in Spain The legal aspects for BMD are defined. BMD structure is fully implemented. Bachelor has 240 ECTS and Master 60 ECTS. Two different types of Master are run by Universities: Full-time academic Master (compulsory to access a PhD) and part-time professional Master as a post degree courses (labour market orientated) New grants and loans for students provided by the State. 16 URV FOUNDATION – LIFELONG LEARNING CENTRE | REUS

  17. The Bologna Process results All Bachelor and Master courses are based on competences. All courses are structured by ECTS. This process has been an impulse for the modernisation of the universities structures. In our universty, new structures to: Internationalize the university Support the pedagogical innovation Support the quality assurance Increase e-learning However, credits can not be accumulated and transferred yet, and we hadn’t started to RPL. 17 URV FOUNDATION – LIFELONG LEARNING CENTRE | REUS

  18. Bologna results: Changes in Lifelong Learning in our University LLL courses at postgraduate level have adopted the ECTS system, expanded the competences method and improved the quality assestment, in order to harmonize with BMD. On the other hand, BMD have not incorporated the LLL perspective in their studies. 18 URV FOUNDATION – LIFELONG LEARNING CENTRE | REUS

  24. Some personal conclusions The Bologna process has been “successful” in: • Implementing the B-M-D. • Introducing and modernizing the pedagogical methods focused on the students. • Increasing mobility and international projects. But, generally speaking, LLL has not been included in universities, and the Bologna Process has been “unsuccessful” in : • Flexibility • Diversity • Accessibility 24 URV FOUNDATION – LIFELONG LEARNING CENTRE | REUS

  25. From ULLL to LLLU Improving the recognition of prior learning, including non formal and informal learning. Creating more flexible, student-centred modes of delivery. Developing flexible learning paths, allowing learners, for instance, to alternate between work and study. Widening access to higher education. 25 URV FOUNDATION – LIFELONG LEARNING CENTRE | REUS
