Career Education in the Context of Lifelong Learning

Nowadays, lifelong learning has a new connotation in the context of man-society networking. The continuous character of education has always been the essence of human expression in social context, but in recent decades this aspect of education has widened considerably in importance. The need for lifelong education is determined both by the necessity of general knowledge and experience of social integration, but especially by the necessity of continuing professional culture and professional integration competence. Starting from selecting the right man for a certain kind of professional activity (initiative generated by the employer), going through a process of educational and vocational guidance (sustained action by the formal education), we come to the need for career education, lifelong learning for a successful socio-professional integration, process in which the individual involves consciously. Career education, as educational content is an integral part of lifelong learning and is based on conceptual milestones of career pedagogy.
