Definition(s)

  • Continuing education may be defined at the most basic level as education provided for adults after they have exited the formal education system. One learning network has extended this definition by describing continuing education as those courses, programs, or organized learning experiences that are usually taken after a degree is obtained to enhance one's personal or professional goals.
