Under the conditions of a knowledge-based economy and in the view of the concept of lifelong learning, it is necessary to find the methods for knowledge management ensuring the principle of equal opportunities and narrowing the gap between the development of urban and rural population. During the implementation of the project ''Vocational Education 2005-2006'', 2562 people in 119 groups in 21 regions of Latvia participated in trainings. In the course of training, it was established that the majority of adults in the regions did not have cognitive skills necessary for understanding, processing, and independent use of new knowledge in practice. The aim of the training was to develop such new skills and abilities in adults, which would contribute to the development of entrepreneurship, marketing, project management, and other skills most sought after in today’s economy as well as those skills that would ensure that employees in the regions possessed competences improving their competitiveness in the labour market in accordance with the national programme. The authors have identified the limiting factors having influence on the development of employees in the regions and proposed solutions to the problem. In the course of the research conducted, the basic skills that should be developed in people living in the regions in order to facilitate the development of entrepreneurship were defined as well as theoretical substantiation of the knowledge management methods was developed alongside within the model for implementation of these methods in organisations.
