 Return to: Programs (A-Z)
The Post-Master’s Certificate of Advanced Study in Adult Learning is designed for the experienced educator-teacher, counselor, administrator, program planner, or policy maker-who works with adults in any educational setting, or seeks to explore the use of adult learning strategies as an alternative educational approach for working with younger learners. The thirty (30)-credit program emphasizes personal learning as a central theme, both as an approach to educator development and as a set of concepts and tools for working with adults in schools, businesses, social service agencies, hospitals, and other community organizations where adult education programs are planned and delivered. This is an individualized, flexible program which permits students to apply their learning to field-based projects.
