Change & Accents
The University for Continuing Education Krems was founded 30 years ago. Then, as now, the conviction remains: lifelong learning is a central response to the challenges of our time. Staying competitive, expanding opportunities, and securing prosperity remain essential goals – especially under demanding conditions and amid dynamic social change. What was considered an innovation three decades ago is now a firmly established part of Austria’s higher education and research landscape. This special issue of upgrade, focusing on “Change & Accents,” marks both the 30th anniversary of the University for Continuing Education Krems and the inauguration of the new Rectorate. It reflects on the role of continuing education in society, situates lifelong learning within the broader discussion on education and Europe’s competitiveness, examines the future of universities, considers the significance of education in dealing with artificial intelligence, and highlights how continuing education is evolving in Europe and beyond.
