Abstract
The 60-Year curriculum: New models for lifelong learning in the digital economy examines new
vantage points for higher education reform and global shifts in workforce development driven
primarily by new models of lifelong learning. The chapter authors have provided insightful and
occasionally provocative analyses of how universities in the digital economy will need to
reconceptualise their models of lifelong learning given the impacts of digital technologies and
increases in life expectancy resulting in longer careers and the need for education, training, upskilling-re-
skilling-upgrading. In sum, these trends mean that “what we learn, when we learn it, how we learn
it, and who we learn it from will all change” (Scott, p. 25).
