Florida Atlantic University Adult and Community Education Our values lead the way … To distinctively impact our faculty, students, communities, and educational policy, practice, and research.

Mission: The Department of Educational Leadership’s mission is to prepare and support leaders in public and private educational institutions at all levels and in the educational units of other organizations. The Adult/Community Education program through its concentrations in human resource development, college teaching, community education, and adult education serves individuals preparing for leadership positions in education programs for adults in a wide variety of settings: universities and community colleges, business and industry, health and social service agencies, and public and private schools. The program provides broad experiences that allow leaders to bring many different perspectives to bear on the organizational problems and opportunities which confront them in practice. The College of Education’s Conceptual Framework reads:
Informed reflective decision-makers have mastered the subject matter needed for the
profession and understand the need for lifelong learning to remain a viable professional. Ethical reflective decision-makers understand why they are given discretion in their roles
and use that ability only for the student’s or client’s benefit. Capable reflective decisionmakers
have the means to teach students or service clients effectively and understand the
responsibilities involved in the role. Graduates of programs in the College of Education
at Florida Atlantic University are informed, ethical, and capable reflective decisionmakers.
