The influence of the bologna process on teachers training

Bibliogr. s. 202

Since 1999 when the Bologna Declaration was signed, European institutions started to modernize and reform higher education. In Poland the year 2013 not only introduced the most basic assumptions of the reform of the university, but also allowed to finish work on the Polish Framework for Higher Education Qualifications. The Bologna Process attaches great importance to the question of employment, i.e. to the ability of graduates to find and maintain work in the changing labor market. Employers are looking for people with competences, knowledge of at least two foreign languages at the level of free communication and with certain skills which facilitate team work in multicultural and multiethnic teams. Institutions educating future teachers should take over the role of integrators learning through whole life (lifelong learning process - LLP). First of all, graduates of these courses should be better equipped with the most universal competence. The range of possibilities is virtually unlimited, especially that one can connect LLP activities with the process of Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL), which is supposed to help in the recognition of competences acquired outside the formal education process.
