Commission on Lifelong Learning

Lifelong Learning Staff

From its first programs for returning World War II veterans, ACE's Center for Lifelong Learning (CLLL) has led the national movement to recognize and promote adult learner programs in higher education. A national leader in shaping policies, practices, and perceptions about continuous learning, the Center's commitment to adult learners includes programs, services, tools, and research to help bridge the gaps in serving diverse learners, alleviating workforce shortages, and meeting professional education demands in order to support access to and success in postsecondary education.
