As significant part of population in Estonia and Norway live in housing cooperatives, the members of the cooperatives are the most important target group of the project supporting the development of all the mentioned skills useful and important in adult students everyday life.
The study programm called ENCHEPA for adult learners will take place in Estonia and Norway in 2014, one week in both participating countries, providing adult learners from housing cooperatives the new opportunities to study subjects useful in different situations in their lives. 30 adult learners total from Estonia and Norway will participate in the project and have lectures/ trainings in the other country together with the local adult learners.
