CAREER AND LIFE-LONG LEARNING MANAGEMENT AS PRECONDI-TIONS FOR CAREER DEVELOPMENT
CAREER AND LIFE-LONG LEARNING MANAGEMENT AS PRECONDI-TIONS FOR CAREER DEVELOPMENT

Summary/Abstract: The global environment, the demographic changes, the new cultural paradigms, the inexorable pro-gress of technology, the information distribution, the modification of the job profiles, the advance of science and the restoration of knowledge result in intensive dynamics of acting and necessity of an innovative approach to adjustment and existence in the contemporary world. The changing na-ture of the environment imposes the need of constant excellence and updating of knowledge and skills. For a particular organization, this primarily means maximization of the human resources and increased efficiency as well as provision of competitive advantage, whereas for the employees it means work efficiency, as well as lowering the level of resistance to changes. Therefore, the objec-tive of the text is to approach the concept of lifelong learning, which is actually the primary aim of the Lisbon Strategy (European Council 2000), to the aspects of career development, i.e. it deter-mines and describes the role of the lifelong learning regarding career management and career plan-ning.
