Encourage a sense of curiosity in adult learners—and fuel your passion for teaching.

Education is lifelong curiosity. The Post-Master’s Certificate in Higher Education and Adult Learning (Non-Licensure) is designed for professionals who want to inspire and support adult learners.

Piquing the interest of adults is a much different challenge than appealing to younger students. Develop the knowledge to lead successful adult learning programs within higher education institutions, corporations, and other workforce settings.

You will examine adult learning theories, explore best practices for facilitating program planning and assessment, and develop leadership skills to effectively engage and motivate adults to create change across their institutions and workplaces.

Credits from the Post-Master’s Certificate in Higher Education and Adult Learning can be applied toward Walden’s Doctor of Education (EdD) program.
