Description
This study considers lifelong learning infrastructure as a key enabler for building a skills-driven Europe. It examines how AI literacy, microskills and adaptive upskilling can help individuals, organisations and education systems respond to rapidly changing labour markets. The study is based on the European context, where digital transformation, the green transition, demographic shifts and the increasing use of artificial intelligence are changing professional competences and learning needs. The study argues that lifelong learning should be understood not only as participation in individual courses or programmes, but also as an interconnected infrastructure that integrates intellectual skills , learner profiles, flexible learning pathways, assessment, quality assurance and transferable competences. Drawing on recent research in the academic literature, European policy priorities and official statistics, the study demonstrates that Europe needs more integrated, inclusive and robust learning systems Such systems can increase employability, professional mobility, innovation potential and social sustainability in a changing economy.
