INTRODUCTION
Welcome to the
e-manual on adult participation in universities!
The manual is intended
for managers, teachers and practitioners working
with adults in universities. It may also be of
interest to staff trainers and professional development
co-ordinators, policy makers and administrators
with an interest in adult higher learning, staff
of national agencies who have a role to play
in increasing adult participation in universities,
adult learners, or indeed anyone else with an
interest in widening participation in the higher
education sector.
The manual focuses
on key areas that university managers and practitioners
should consider if they wish to widen participation
including issues like the adult curriculum, adult
education methodology, adult students’ support
and guidance, community outreach and ICT as a
method for widening participation.
The manual could be used to develop policies for widening adult participation
and to introduce new practices that will bring new groups of adults into higher
education.

We
hope that this e-manual will:
• Provide a useful
resource for those involved in the planning and
delivery of adult education in universities
• Strengthen the
European dimension in adult learning, increase
the knowledge and improve the understanding of
the issues, and encourage innovation and change
in lifelong learning provision in universities.
