What is adult education?

Adult education provides learning opportunities for individuals ages 16 and older who want to build new skills, earn credentials, advance their careers, support their families, and pursue the goals that matter most to them. Across Utah, adult education includes English language learning, adult basic education, high school completion, corrections education, citizenship preparation, workforce training, digital literacy, and a wide range of lifelong learning opportunities. Every learner brings unique experiences and goals, and adult education helps connect those strengths to new opportunities.

The Adult Education Association of Utah (AEAUT) is a statewide professional community dedicated to strengthening adult education. Through professional learning, networking, recognition, and collaboration, AEAUT supports the strong adult education system that helps learners and communities thrive.
