Welcome to TU Delft's Lifelong Learning Catalyst Project

Funded by the National Growth Fund

We are excited to have secured a grant of 2 million euros from the Lifelong Learning Catalyst initiative within the Dutch National Growth Fund (LLO Katalysator van het Nationaal Groeifonds) to further professionalise our offerings and empower professionals in Science, Engineering, and Design to tackle the world’s most pressing societal challenges. This governmental funding supports our 2-year project on specific efforts in lifelong learning (LLL). Over the course of2024–2026, this space will keep you updated on our activities to elevate TU Delft’s lifelong learning offer to new heights.

Why this matters
