Lifelong Education and Learning Together with Their Influence on the Life Quality of the Adults - Sociological View

Lifelong education does not seem to know any limits of age or scientific disciplines. For the most part, it could be perceived as an ongoing aspiration for something new and different. Furthermore, a society based on lifelong education can provide more stable environment for better future and better quality of life. With relation to skills, abilities, support of primary and secondary environment together with their dependence on financial possibilities, individual motivation and energy connected with ever changing needs of workplace, most people are bound to educate and acquire knowledge throughout their entire life. The empirical part of my research task consists of a questionnaire (Appendix 1) that was answered by 92 respondents, out of which 56 (60,9%) were female and 36 (39,1%) male. Considering the level of education, 12% of respondents had PhD, 30.4% of them acquired MA, 28.3% had professional degrees, 21.7 acquired associate degrees, 4.3% did not finish higher/ university education, whereas 3.3% had secondary/high school education only. Average age of the respondents was 44.9 years. They were chosen by the method of random sampling, and submitted their answers via digitally formed questionnaire.
