Promoting Learning Among Families, Communities and Workplaces

The Adult Education Program at the Pennsylvania State University is pleased to
announce that it will be holding a Spring Open House at the University Park
Campus on Saturday, April 1, 2006.  

The Adult Education Program at Penn State is dedicated to advancing knowledge
and improving practices regarding teaching and learning of adults in formal,
non-formal, and informal contexts. Our program offers three graduate degrees: 
M.Ed, D.Ed, and Ph.D, and three graduate certificates in Distance Education,
Family Literacy, and HRD/Workplace Learning. Areas of emphasis available in our
program are:
o	Adult Teaching and Learning
o	Distance Education
o	Learning in Workplace and Community
o	Literacy for Culturally and Linguistically Diverse Populations

Students of Adult Education enhance their ability to teach adults, plan adult
learning experiences, conduct research regarding the teaching and learning of
adults, and provide leadership in a variety of positions within the field.  Our
students come from diverse professional fields such as health, religious
education, human resources, continuing education, adult literacy,
community-based education, and community organizing.

We invite you to come and find out more about our program during the Spring Open
House.  The Open House is an excellent opportunity to meet faculty and
students, learn about financial assistance available and explore the
possibilities for graduate study.  The Adult Education Open House will be held
on Saturday, April 1, 2006 from 11am – 2pm at the Nittany Lion Inn, 200 West
