National Institute on the Assessment of Adult Learning

June 9 - 11 at Caesars Atlantic City.

The National Institute on the Assessment of Adult Learning provides an intensive learning experience for professionals in education who are involved, or have recently become involved in the assessment of adult learning. Assessing adult learning encompasses many areas, such as:

• Prior Learning Assessment (PLA)
• Authentication of adult learners
• Assessing adult learning in all kinds of distance education settings
• Assessment methodologies for distance education settings

The main goals of the National Institute are to address issues of interest to novices and experienced professionals alike, such as the development and growth of assessment programs (including a PLA program), student advising, faculty development, research, quality assurance, and current issues and trends. The National Institute also serves as a venue to share experiences in a casual environment and to network with colleagues.  The National Institute is sponsored annually by Thomas Edison State College, in cooperation with the Council for Adult and Experiential Learning.
