Swedish term or phrase: det livsdjupa lärandet
I'm working on a text from the Swedish Knowledge Foundation which talks about "det livslånga/livsvida/livsdjupa lärandet". Later in the text they appear as individual headings so need to be relatively concise. Any suggestions will be very welcome!

profound


Explanation:
I would prefer to move slightly away from the 'life' prefix as it does not always work in English.
'..lifelong, comprehensive and profound learning', would be my preference.
