Educational and professional potential of Polish returnees

Journal Title: Rocznik Andragogiczny - Year 2018, Vol 25, Issue

Abstract

As a new experience in their biography, emigration and return migration became a source of formal, non-formal and often informal learning which provided the respondents with new skills and knowledge, allowed them to develop certain characteristics of their personality and change the way in which they perceive reality, which inspired them to reconsider their philosophy of life, occupation, education and redefine their values and beliefs. The article is based on my research on the process of acquisition and capitalisation of educational and professional experience by Polish migrants and returnees. The aim of the study was to describe and further explore the process and to attempt to understand the motives behind educational and professional activity, both abroad and after the return to Poland, as well as their significance for returnees.
