Università delle LiberEtà is a Lifelong Learning Centre that deals with adult education and training and organizes almost six hundred courses per year, with more than 100 teachers for about 2200 learners.
Since 2000 Università delle LiberEtà began to expand its educational and cultural reality throughout Europe. Although very happy with the results both at local and regional level, it was considered important to take a perspective leap rather than a quality one.
A perspective that included a wider European vision. Since 2002 we began to organize events, courses and international exchanges, to manage and take part in various European cooperation projects, and to be an important European and extra-European network which includes more than 60 organizations.
The European projects, part of the Grundtvig, LLP, and Erasmus+ programmes, responded to the mission of the Università delle LiberEtà and its scope. The work and the exchange with other institutions that have similar aims and purposes, but different traditions, culture and language, have enriched unquestionably the formative and cultural development of our centre. Staff of ULE is a group of 5 collaborators highly motivated in keeping an innovative approach to both teaching and learning aspects of lifelong learning, and to broaden the European network.
