With Adult Learners Week approaching on 1 September, Adult Learning Australia is inviting nominations for outstanding adult learners, with the offer of scholarships.
Adult Learners Week, from September 1-8, offers organisations that run courses, classes, exhibitions, tours or other adult education activities the chance to celebrate their work and give Australians a chance to learn something new. This year’s theme is ‘Change Your Story’ and with COVID-19 in mind the focus is on how people can take their lives in new directions through adult education.
Organisations that take part in Adult Learners Week include employers, neighbourhood houses, community centres, libraries, training organisations, community colleges, local councils, not-for-profit organisations, TAFEs and other adult education providers across all states and territories.
If you know someone who has an inspiring story about turning their life around through adult education, you can nominate them for one of three $1000 Adult Learners Week scholarships.
Adult Learners Week events and scholarship nominees are featured across social media platforms as part of a national campaign so it’s a great opportunity to highlight the work your organisation does and the achievements of your learners.
