The Adult Education program believes that change is best accomplished through education. Our mission is, first and foremost, to address our student's individual learning needs-to provide them opportunities to become the best adult educators they can. We also prepare our students-the professionals who work as trainers, managers, mentors, evaluators, and designers of educational programs for other adult learners-to be leaders for organizational and societal change.
This program is for mid-career professionals in higher education, community/public school adult education, health services, and human resource development. If you would like to read stories about our alumni adult educators, visit Alumni Career Stories.
We offer two programs:
The M.S. in Adult Education program offers a unique set of academic courses, field experiences, and opportunities for reflective practice for those wishing to advance their knowledge and skills in the field of adult education.
The Post-Master's Certificate of Advanced Study is offered to those who hold a Master's degree and want to pursue their own course of study based on their current professional needs and aspirations.
On-line Learning Option: In addition to the campus-based program at Gorham, a master's degree is offered through on-line courses and some summer one-week intensive institutes, enabling students from around the state to enroll. For more information about this option, please contact the program coordinator.
