Leonardo da Vinci Programme

Life Long Learning

The European Life Long Learning Programme supports a range of activities to encourage trans-national cooperation between organisations involved in vocational educational training, culture, adult education and youth work. There are a range of initiatives including funding to support the development of innovative training solutions, work placements and learning opportunities between member states.

Point Europa is very active in this programme and aims to provide formal and in-formal educational opportunities for our learners and also work with partner countries to create innovative training solutions to tackle social need.

To support this objective we employ experts skilled in:

  • analysis of training needs.
  • design and evaluation of training courses, particularly (but not exclusively) within the fields of childcare, social inclusion of marginalised groups, citizenship and language development.
  • internal and external evaluation of trans-national projects.
  • delivery of training and educational material to adults, young people and children.

    We are currently active in a range of Grundtvig and Leonardo Da Vinci Projects and have considerable experience in project managing initiatives within these programmes. For further information on these programmes visit:
