Abstract:
This PIAAC presentation on learning was made at COABE 2015. It covers findings on adults age 16-65 who were classified as less than high school, high school, and postsecondary completers. The presentation shares the characteristics and skill levels of people who learned formally and non-formally in the year before PIAAC vs. those who didn't. At the end it includes a learner recruitment simulation adult education programs could consider using. A detailed look at the patterns of participation in adult learning activities by U.S. adults’ education levels, demographics, and assessed skill levels. Focusing on adults with less than a high school degree, contrasts will be drawn between those who participate in learning activities and those who report they do not. ATTACHMENTS: PIAAC slides_short
