Apart from the regular exchange of information on news and events in the field of adult education in every single administrative unit, two key topics were discussed during this meeting:

Finally, the participants concluded that assuring a quality implementation of legal framework in the field of adult education is necessary in all administrative units and is achievable only by using common approach, acting together and allocating human and financial resources appropriately in accordance with the adopted regulation.
