    Lifelong Learning Skills International offers skills courses to help you realize your personal and professional potential through a lifelong learning philosophy, approach and method.  Baert (2001) defines "Lifelong Learning [as] a process whereby both individuals and organizations acquire, in all possible contexts of their lives, the necessary knowledge and competences to better manage their professional, economical, social and cultural tasks in a quickly changing environment so to be able to establish themselves more critically, more responsibly and more meaningfully" (p. 169, translation from Dutch).

    With this in mind, Watkinson and Tinoca claim, "There seems to be a clear understanding for the need of a new European infrastructure where anyone can develop and refresh her or his competences at any time at any place" (p. 10).  To help achieve the lifelong learning challenge we provide face to face, blended and online skills courses and programs facilitated by lifelong learning practitioners who hold at least one postgraduate degree, have relevant teaching experience and an international perspective.

Michael Pollan
Cooked: A Natural History of Transformation

03 June 2013
Michael Pollan, America's favorite writer about the business and science of food, is back.Cooked is a personal story, one that most of us enact every day. We cook. We use fire, water, air, plants and animals. But what are we really doing? We are making a primal connection. The cook, Pollan discovers, connects his or her family to the earth. Pollan apprentices himself to a grill master, a baker, a top chef and others in order to penetrate the simple mysteries of this everyday rite. As in earlier books, his underlying point is that relying on processed food products breaks the primal connection: it's bad for body and soul. Join us for a thoroughly nourishing evening. 

Moderator: Mac van Dinther, Volkskrant

The Last Queensday: Netherlands 30 April 2013
by admin admin - Friday, 1 March 2013, 03:50 AM
 

Amsterdam Queensday is officially the national celebration of the birthday of the Queen Mother, but this in reality is only an excuse to party hard. The celebrations takes place all over the Netherlands, but have a special atmosphere in big cities like Amsterdam, Rotterdam or The Hague.
In Amsterdam, Queensday is by far the largest open-air festivity, with estimated 750-thousend people come to the city, wisely arriving by train. Places in centre like Dam, Damrak, Rokin, Rembrandtplein, Spui, Leidsestraat and Leidseplein are bursting with crowds celebrating and wearing orange.. On Queensday, all street trade all over the city is unregulated, so it is also the time for second-hand shopping. In Vondelpark the children show their business talents offering various attractions.
