Book Description
This document examines the issue of women and continuing education. Part one reviews the relevant research concerning employment, traditional university offerings, and vocational and educational lifestyles of women. The results of a questionnaire sent to 376 program directors are described in part two in an attempt to learn priorities for Federal funds along with some of the more successful models of programs for women. A review of educational legislation revealed that there are provisions that would permit the funding of services and/or research that would promote more effective development of programs for women. Part three assesses the impact of these activities and identifies potential funding sources for practitioners in the field. (Author/PG).

A Special Report to the President and to the Congress of the United States
Author: United States. National Advisory Council on Extension and Continuing EducationPublisher:
ISBN:
Category : Adult education
Languages : en
Pages : 152
Book Description
This report points out that the U.S. is virtually alone among industrialized countries in having no officially recognized body through which a dialog can be sustained on adult education matters. Furthermore, the delivery system is too often prevented from delivering needed services by its near-total dependence on tuition income. Activities of the National Advisory Council speak to these and other national issues, describing public hearings, meetings with concerned officials and representatives, and recommendations for action. The report recommends to the President that the Executive Branch activate its leadership potential in educational planning, policy, and program development for the unserved and underserved adult learner; expand the scope of NIE (National Institute of Education) research activities; and encourage ICA (International Communications Agency) support for adult and continuing education. The Congress is requested to reauthorize Title 1 of the Higher Education Act to improve ways of meeting adult learning needs. Congress, the report emphasizes, should find ways to encourage and support those who are unable to study full-time and who are discriminated against economically. Appendixes include an executive summary and discussion of federal policies for postsecondary continuing education, an analysis of the current federal role in support of such education, and a summary of public hearings on Title 1.
