Interest Groups

AAACE has 28 interest groups that represent specific areas of interest and involvement to adult educators. They are listed in alphabetical order. As a member you may choose three groups that you are interested in and would benefit from. The level of activity of the interest groups is determined by the involvement of the group members. Thus, your interest and commitment to your interest groups will greatly contribute to the groups' success. Note: Two new interest groups, Labor/Workforce Education and Sustainability and Environmental Adult Education were formed in 2011, and the Servicemembers, Veterans, and Military Spouses group (an outgrowth of the Commission on Military Education and Training) began in 2012.
