Maps and geographic information in a lifelong learning process

This paper is based on the changes which characterise the Danish society at present by way of increased globalisation and regionalisation, a new structural reform and implementation of e-Government (digital management). All the mentioned changes will demand new competences which among other things may be acquired through a systematic supplementary and further education. This article focuses on what universities -- especially Aalborg University - as well as alternative learning methods such as distance education via the Internet can offer to Map and Geodata people.
