The document discusses a qualification scheme called AQUA for middle-aged women in Germany. The project aims to empower women through lifelong learning and gaining a formal qualification. It provides support for self-directed learning groups and helps participants share experiences to overcome obstacles. The learning process involves understanding one's learning style, time management, making theory practical, and gaining appreciation from colleagues. It also discusses the roles and support needed from line managers for the women participating.
