Lifelong Learning Programme

The European Commission adopted a new Lifelong Learning Programme for the period 2007 2013 that replaced the former Socrates, Leonardo da Vinci and e-learning programmes which were in place until the end of 2006. The Lifelong Learning Programme comprises four sectoral programmes, the transversal programme and the Jean Monnet programme: Lifelong Learning Programme Comenius School education Erasmus Leonardo da Vinci Higher education Initial and further and further studies vocational education and training Grundtvig Adult education
Transversal programme Four major spheres of activity: education policy (Cedefop, Arion etc.), language learning, ICT, dissemination of information. Jean Monnet programme Three major spheres of activity: Jean Monnet activities, European institutions, and European associations. The total budget for the Lifelong Learning Programme is 6,970 billion euro for the period 20072013. The objective of the Lifelong Learning Programme is to contribute through lifelong learning to the development of the Community as an advanced knowledge-based society, with sustainable economic development, more and better jobs and greater social cohesion. It aims to foster interchange, cooperation and mobility between education and training systems within the Community, so they become a world quality reference. The Education Exchanges Support Foundation administers the Lifelong Learning Programme in Lithuania. The objectives of the Foundation are to gain benefits from international cooperation, administer programmes and disseminate results of activities. The Leonardo da Vinci programme was set up to support people that participate in vocational education and training and further vocational education by helping them to acquire and use knowledge, skills and qualifications; and also to promote personal professional development and increase possibilities of employment and participation in the European labour market. The main objective of the programme is to unite institutions of various European countries including local authorities, employers organisations and other public organisations in preparing the policy of future vocational education and training.

The Leonardo da Vinci mobility projects are intended for three target groups: 1. IVT mobility of trainees in initial vocational education and training (minimum duration of visits is from 2 to 39 weeks); 2. PLM mobility of people in the labour market (minimum duration of visits is from 2 to 26 weeks); 3. VETPRO mobility of professionals in vocational education and training (minimum duration of visits is from 1 to 6 weeks). While assessing mobility project application of the Leonardo da Vinci programme in 2008, national priorities were given to project proposals aimed at: Integration of socially isolated groups into the labour market; Improvement of business education; Integration of information and communication technologies (ICT) in vocational education and training; Preparation for vocational skills competition (Euroskills); Grant applications; Applications from institutions of Alytus, Utena, Teliai, Marijampol and Taurag counties.

Partnership projects of the Leonardo da Vinci programme

Partnership projects are small-scale projects which focus on cooperation among institutions working in the field of vocational education and training and participating in the Lifelong Learning Programme and seeking mutual benefits. Results achieved during the Leonardo da Vinci partnership projects are later developed and used in further activities as products created by the partnership. The Leonardo da Vinci partnership projects fill the existing gap in activities under the Leonardo da Vinci programmes (i.e. mobility projects and transfer of innovation projects), as they enable wider-scale cooperation in the sphere of vocational education and training (than that within the scope of mobility projects) without requiring a high budget as is the case in transfer of innovation projects. Partnerships can be formed while seeking to continue cooperation, based on which, useful results are created during mobility projects; or alternatively, partnership projects can be the first step towards the transfer of innovation projects. The most important attention of vocational education and training partnership projects under the Leonardo da Vinci programme is paid: 1. Improvement of quality and attractiveness of vocational education and training; 2. Development and implementation of common tools for vocational education and training; 3. Strengthening of mutual learning; 4. Involvement of all interested parties. In 2008, 76 applications under the Leonardo da Vinci partnership projects were submitted, including 11 applications, where Lithuanian organisations wished to par ticipate as project coordinators, and 65 applications, where Lithuanian organi sations wished to participate as partners. 72 of the applications complied with formal eligibi lity requirements and further participated in the competition. The Education Exchange Support Foundation, while taking into consideration the decision of the European Commission, as well as evaluations of independent experts and the proposal of the Leonardo da Vinci programme selection commission, selected 16projects for financingthree projects will be coordinated by Lithuanian organisations, and Lithuanian organisations will participate as partners in 13 further projects.

In 2008, the grant envisaged for Leonardo da Vinci programme partnership projects amounted to 220,000 euros. 197,000 euros were awarded to projects that received the highest ratings among all countries participating in the Lifelong Learning Programme. By the decision of the European Commission, if at least one partner is short of funds, neither partners of the same country will be subsidised. Therefore, the total amount of grant under the programme has decreased. According to submitted partnership project applications, the requested grant amounted to 923,000 euros. The total amount requested in applications for financing the projects exceeded the awarded amount by about 79%. 95

All participating schools are vocational schools training students for the profession of shop assistant. After the extension of the European Union, as new members joined, the labour market in this area also expanded. During LdV trainee placements, common problems were noticed in all countries. Although similar requirements for trainees placements are raised, the curricula for the same profession are different as they are based on national research and demands. During the discussions between different schools from different countries we identified the need to compare the curricula and trace common points and requirements.

The project Coach in VET aims to develop guidelines for tool coaching in VET and make them accessible to systems in partner countries. Coaching in vocational education and training (VET) is becoming increasingly important. It is a flexible, yet specifically applicable tool, which arouses interest and receives much appreciation. As a result, it has replaced counselling for learners in VET to a great extent. Furthermore, it has become a tool for self-reflection of management boards in the system of VET. It meets employees and members of organisations common needs when it comes to the Project description question of how life and work should be organised. Many teachers in VET are not yet prepared to live up to the role of vocational education pedagogue. Personnel in vocational education need to be professionalised. The demand for counselling is decreasing; coaching has superseded offers of counselling for the customer and is currently replacing offers of further education (CE). Training related to, for example, time management, communication, coping with conflicts, and other soft skills; is no longer carried out in terms of courses or workshops. Instead, individual or group coaching is offered. A website of management-related information with the slogan Coach in VET. It will be possible to download the material published on this website Products/results of the project from the Internet or to record it on a CD. This will help coaching specialists and trainers improve their abilities and students will have the opportunity to acquire professional skills faster.
