TRAINING FOR ADULT EDUCATORS

Sponsored by
The Centre for Continuing Education
and

The Adult Education Research Centre
Faculty of Education

THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA

Each event has been designed to combine a theoretical base with practical experi-
ence. The selection of resource people reflects this combination and each event
will have at least one person with a broad theoretical base and at least one
person with extensive practical experience.

Designed for teachers or instructors of adults in any education institution or
agency; in government agencies; in business and industry; in voluntary and other
community agencies; or in any full-time or part-time job that is concerned with
the education of adults. Several events also will be of particular interest to

those who are responsible for organizing and administering educational events
for adults.

The emphasis in this selection of short courses is to provide opportunities for
learning how to use effectively a number of techniques and aids. A range of
techniques are available to the teacher of adults. Their proper selection and
use can make the difference between ineffective and effective adult education.

Therefore, procedures are an important factor in providing educational experi-
ences for adults.
