What is the educational attainment of the European adult population? What literacy, numeracy and ICT skills do adults in Europe have? Do all adults benefit equally from available lifelong learning opportunities? Data providing answers to these questions is the starting point for the Eurydice report Adult Education and Training in Europe: Widening Access to Learning Opportunities that paints a picture of the state of adult education and training in Europe. Building on priorities of the renewed European agenda for adult learning (2011), the report concentrates on policies and measures to ensure sufficient access to learning opportunities for adults whose skills and qualifications do not fully correspond to current labour market and societal requirements. In doing so, the report takes a broad perspective, considering and exploring a range of interlinked areas. Starting from a selection of contextual indicators on adult education and training, the report examines national policy commitments to adult learning, main types of publicly subsidised programmes, learning flexibility and progression pathways, outreach initiatives and guidance services as well as targeted financial support. The report covers 35 national education systems located in 32 European countries (all EU Member States as well as Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway and Turkey). It draws on several data sources, the prime source being the information gathered through the Eurydice Network in 2014. Alongside Eurydice information, the report also includes statistical data from international surveys and outcomes from a range of research projects. These highlights provide a snapshot of selected topics discussed in the report
