چکیده
Over the past years and due to demographic change, technical progress and globalisation of markets, the working environment has undergone significant changes. In today’s knowledge-based society employees are confronted with new challenges time and again. For those who want to keep up with the time, a steady refresh of their knowledge and competencies through further education is crucial. The knowledge and competencies acquired at school or university is no longer a guarantee for a long-term employment; it is “just” a requirement for the first career entry. Further education increases significantly the chances on the labour market and it is an inevitable necessity for all of those who want to stay competitive in the future. This development has also a significant impact on higher education market and even demands a rethinking of the existing strategies and practices.
