Industry, education, and professional competencies : can the principles of lifelong learning bridge the gaps?

The Faculty of Business and Law at Central Queensland University (CQU) is carrying out a re-evaluation of its programs. The questions under investigation are as follows. 1) What are the principles of lifelong learning? 2) What mixes of academic studies, professional competencies, and industry-base learning (IBL) are available and may be used in the Faculty of Business and Law to provide useful, valid outcomes for graduates? 3) How are the defined principles of lifelong learning being implemented from first-year in marketing?
