Summary/Abstract: Nowadays, when seeking to link the labor market and higher education, new forms of education for young people and adults are needed. The Flexible Networks project is geared precisely to linking these two segments in a new way, enabling individuals. The international network of flexible studies is made up of different forms of education and training that are linked to one or more institutions. The essence of this network is that domestic and foreign students and individuals can be educated towards their step-by-step development. The characteristics of these international networks are the co-ordinated centers that independently of the institutions and organizations of education monitor and evaluate the progress of each individual. That is why the Program Committee is formed within a Career Center which evaluates the competences that are acquired and enables each individual to make their development plan through an educational process that is not limited by time and space. So those who enter the Flexible Study Network make their credit and competency funding plan themselves and finance their own process that can last longer than a legally regulated teaching process and even through online study programs, but can also gain knowledge through the network and university and high school diplomas that are in the network and which can in a special way test the knowledge of the participants of flexible studies. Institutions and organizations in the network can arrange different and informal and formal training and recruitment through the online career center during the process of studying. The difference between these networks and other educational networks is that each individual can remain unlimited in the network and can acquire (even in parallel) more diplomas, qualifications and certifications, and with the help of a career center adapt to a flexible labor market.
