Careers in Adult Education

Adult Education is the process whereby a person who no longer attends a school on a regular or full time basis undertakes activities with the conscious intention of bringing a rapid social change in the community. Adult Education is the practice of teaching and educating adults. It takes place in the work place through the method of extension education. Educating adults differs from educating children in several ways. One of the most important differences is that adults have accumulated knowledge and work experience that can add to the learning experience. India needs such educators for reaching the milestone of education for all & right to education.
