Description:
Lifelong learning now encourages adults to move in and out of formal and non-formal education programs, greatly expanding the field of Adult Education. To equip present and future professions for "cutting edge" jobs and responsibilities, UM-St. Louis courses for professionals in adult education are based on the idea that adults as learners are different from children as learners. Adult learning principles are practiced at all times as the most effective way to help participants develop learning projects that are compatible with and relate to their work setting, areas of interest, and careers.

Today's rapidly changing technologically oriented society has created a need for educators whose academic preparation and philosophical outlook reflect understanding and concern for the unique needs of the adult learner.
