Editorial
This special issue of Cursiv provides readers with a glimpse into the research done within the National Research Centre for Competence Development at DPU, AU. The National Research Centre for Competence Development (NCK) plays an important role in strengthening adult education, further education, and professional guidance in Denmark by conducting theoretical and empirical research, as well as by systematising the existing knowledge in the area. This contributes to establishing a solid research driven evidence base for policy and decision makers in the field, and also provides inspiration to the research and practice communities for innovative research and professional development concerning adult education and lifelong learning.
