The Expanding Opportunities Project brings together leading actors from a sample of LLP countries, which will promote transnational cooperation in the implementation of Lifelong Learning Strategies, more particularly in the field of Widening Access. The main aim of the project was to identify critical factors, create synergies and formulate appropriate answers to the following challenges:
- The need to improve the perception of Higher Education among school and other target populations,
- The need for more efficient outreach to non-traditional/new student groups,
- The need for a revision of the admission systems to Higher Education,
- The need for appropriate support services for the new student cohorts.
