Learn about the AAACE Commissions!

You are invited to join us for an engaging webinar - Learn about the AAACE Commissions!

Commissions are discrete communities within AAACE where members can engage with others who have a shared interest within the field of adult education. They create spaces for collaboration, support, networking, innovation, and knowledge sharing. 

During this webinar, AAACE Commission Directors will provide an overview of their Commission, and take your questions. 

Registration is free for AAACE Members and Non-members.

Each month AAACE is proud to present our Open Conversations webinar series. Open to all! We encourage you to join the conversations, and share upcoming dates with your colleagues and students.
