Recently i read nice report about the Future of Learning. Here are some thoughts i got during reading this nice piece.
In 2020 European society will require 16 millions more qualified workers than in 2010. Moreover, to stay competitive in crisis and technological changes, European society need to grow the number of university graduates. In the time of globalization Europe can not compete with growth of China or India economies. Therefore, Europe need to find ways to save its share of the global wealth through the excellence and innovations.
The number of older people is growing and the number of younger people decreases. The labor force is aging and half more people over 65 than now.will live in 2050. Therefore, older people need as well to have opportunities to improve their knowledge and increase qualification degrees.
Europe attracts immigrants to get enough labor force. Even so immigrants usually stay unemployed that indicates the need of immigrants and their children to be supported in education and orientation in new country.
Significant impact of technology is/will change job structure and requirements. It dictates new skills required for jobs, in most cases ICT skills. We can acquire new skills in schools, universities, at training and workshops. However, costs and requirements of rapid learning from the industry increase the preferences for virtual way of learning.

- In the future immigrants and their children can learn languages in the country where they immigrate on fly using ubiquitous computing.
- In the future aging workers may acquire new skills at working place and stay professionally fit.
- In the future people with medium or high qualifications but obsolete professions can apply their skills for other kinds of job.
- In the future people with low qualification can study and learn new jobs staying at home.
