Abstract
While universities are strongly embedded in a history of disciplinary structures, both institutionally (faculties, institutes or schools) and scientifically (“septem artes liberales”, study programmes), Continuing Education and Training (CET) within higher education (HE) can break up this disciplinary view and open new perspectives between the academic and the professional world. In this article, we explore the structural, disciplinary and historical boundaries of HE and CET and how both can come to systematic, constructive relations. Subsequently, we adopt a more pedagogical perspective and focus on CET that is provided within the institutional structures of HE.
