Empathy is an important part of emotional intelligence and the latter is crucial for human relations, whether they be interpersonal relations, relations among people at work, or in a wider community. Therefore, empathy is important for adult education, for guidance counsellors, and for other adult educators. Adult educators must be empathic in order to understand the perspectives and needs of the participants in the educational process and empathy is a precondition for understanding. The development of empathy as a competence is a lifelong learning process. Namely, despite some biological predispositions for empathy, the latter can be learnt. It is the contention of the article that empathy is one of the most important intercultural competencies, because if a person is not empathic, other intercultural competencies vary rarely cannot develop to their full extent. Thus empathy is a precondition for successful intercultural dialogue.

Lifelong learning plays an important role due to the actual needs that we have in terms of knowledge-based economy. It provides education both to working and non-working people who want to be part of this developing society. In this study, two different levels of the Spanish Adult Education are assessed but not only from an individual point of view, but also from the point of view of cooperation between them in order to improve the teaching-learning process. Both the Education Centre of Olmedo (Olmedo, Spain) and the University of Burgos (Burgos, Spain) are described deep inside and likewise, the activities that they two are developing to interconnect both the two centres and the educational levels so that the learning process is never interrupted. Activities such as seminars, web pages management, oral presentations and questionnaires showing different aspects of the educational process will be discussed in the present study. The use of the new Information Technology and Communication (ICT) should be enhanced for effective learning of our adult students. From our results, it will be demonstrated that adults can be part of the education system and therefore gain new skills and knowledge that let them succeed in their lives. Key words: adult education, developing society, lifelong learning, teaching-learning process, teaching methodology.

Workplace learning supports the acquisition of knowledge or skills by formal or informal methods and means that occurs in the workplace. It contributes to the learning of employees, employers and the organization as a whole. As a response to COVID-19 disease, workplace learning had to be changed and many usual activities in this context have been postponed or canceled. Digital learning solutions and alternative activities have to be found in order to continue the learning process. Workplace learning is often incorporated into workplace social interactions and everyday practices, but it can include also formal elements and be supported by mentors and tutors. In this presentation, first some forms, benefits and requirements of workplace learning are described as well as steps and approaches like learning scenarios which have to be developed to ensure social distancing and promote digital learning at the workplace as a solution. Second, some learning methods are proposed which can be applied within workplace learning and have been tested by the Study Group Lifelong Learning of the IAT within a European project.

A felnőttnevelési szakemberek szakmai fejlesztésének kérdésköre a 2000-es évek után nyert létjogosultságot Európa-szerte, amelyhez hozzájárult a Making a European Area of Lifelong Learning a Reality dokumentum megjelenése (European Commission, 2001). A tanulmány érzékelteti, hogy a felnőttnevelési szakemberképzés témaköre egyre nagyobb teret nyer a nemzetközi kutatási szférában, a nemzeti szakmai tanulmányok áttekintésének eredménye alapján arra következtet, hogy Magyarországon továbbra is csekély mértékben valósulnak meg elméleti és főként empirikus vizsgálatok a felnőttnevelési szakemberek professzionalizációjának kérdéskörében. The issue of professional development for adult education professionals gained legitimacy across Europe after the 2000s, helped by the publication of the document Making a European Area of Lifelong Learning a Reality (European Commission, 2001).The study shows that the topic of adult education professional training is gaining more and more ground in the international research sphere, with an overview of national professional studies.Based on the results of its work, it concludes that in Hungary, there is still a small amount of theoretical and mainly empirical research on the issue of professionalisation of adult education professionals.
