Adult education
"Adult Education" is also the title of a song by
Hall & Oates.Adult education is the practice of teaching and educating adults. This is often done in the workplace or through 'extension' or '
continuing education' courses at
secondary schools, or at a
college or
university. Other learning places include
folk high schools, community colleges, and lifelong learning centers. The practice is also often referred to as 'Training and Development'. It has also been referred to as
andragogy (to distinguish it from
pedagogy). A difference is made between vocational education, mostly done in workplaces and mostly related to upskilling, and non-formal adult education, that can include learning skills or learning for personal development.
