Lifelong learning as a new paradigm may be the avenue for equality of chances, purposeful jobs and thrive, if envisaged not only as an individual responsibility or a mechanistic way of staying competitive, but rather as a mean of self-development in resonance with the world. However, the reality is that some socio-groups such as adults without a higher education degree are still facing challenges to participation. The digital-analogue platform called RISE, is freeing those facing barriers, from existing education systems and workplace shackles, making their «life skills» visible, offering them support such as mentoring, and creating bridges with communities and businesses. RISE supports the growth of adults without a postsecondary degree while respecting their needs of modular, flexible and personalised services.
