The Master of Lifelong Learning Scholarships
Lifelong Learning has become a fundamental goal of recent education policies, often advocated as a way to achieve socio-economic development and as a tool for promoting the 'knowledge-based' society.
The rationale of the Masters of Lifelong Learning is to increase the awareness of European Lifelong Learning policies in a regional European context as well as on a global scale. It aims to provide policy-makers and professionals with responsibility for managing, delivering or supporting Lifelong Learning with opportunities to develop their own analysis and practice in what is a constantly changing economic, social, technological and policy environment.
The growing significance of Lifelong Learning both in national and international policy results in the need to bring its implications under close and critical scrutiny. The Master of Lifelong Learning is to be considered a response to a strong need for conducting educational reform activities all over the world.

Scholarship opportunity for All
SCHOLARSHIP FOR ALL
There are thousands upon thousands of scholarships and institutions dedicated to give free education for all. The question however is: "With countless scholarships opportunities up for grab, are there enough for all?" You should now consider seeking help from scholarship search.
Scholarship search is a helpful tool in order for you to arrive at the any scholarship available for you. It is an online site the gives you the access on the list of scholarships that might be good for you. We say, “might be good” because there are certain types of scholarships that are not suitable for you. Reasons for this vary. It might be because some scholarships available on scholarship search only grants those within a set age bracket, status, needs, merits, ethnicity, and more.
To begin with, scholarship search usually asks for the searcher’s profile. The profile would contain the student's first name, student's last name, student's email address, email password, date of birth, address, citizenship, race, and other details that are related to the student. After giving these information, the scholarship search site would give a shortlist of available institutions, individuals and groups that offer a type of scholarship that you qualified into.
Let us look at several types of scholarship opportunities that would somehow give us the final view that there are enough scholarship opportunities for all.
Academic scholarship
The most popular type of scholarship grant is the academic scholarship. Most applicants who take this type of scholarship can either be highly proficient in academics or an average person so long as grades can be maintained. Academic scholarship is given to students who receive the highest mark in the graduation class, endorse by the school to apply for an academic scholarship or meet the necessary grade point average set by the school. If you do not fall in any of the conditions mentioned, ask your high school academic guidance counselor for details on the different ways on how to avail for academic scholarships. Usually some colleges and universities accept applicants with an average high school GPA but pass the entrance test(s).
Athletic scholarship
Next to academic scholarship, the athletic scholarship is the second most popular type of scholarship that is up for grab. Applicants of athletic scholarship are usually chosen but it is still open for all. Colleges and universities give both the academic and athletic scholarships but there are other institutions that give these types of scholarships. Colleges and universities offer free education for students with exceptional gift in sports. Recipients of the athletic scholarship are often selected among the graduating high school students. However, there are some schools that open the possibility for students to apply for athletic scholarship after they have enrolled in college.
Institutional scholarships
Here, the sponsors are groups or institutions who willingly devote themselves in providing students with the opportunities to finish college without worrying about the finances. Institutions can have their special groups to answer. There are institutions that grant scholarships to Hispanics, African-Americans, minorities, women, disabled, and Native Americans. There are also institutions that provide free education on a specific field such as Nursing, Engineering, Medicine, Law, Business, and Sciences among others. Institutions can also include local governments.
Union scholarship
