AIM

To provide adults free information and guidance regarding their learning and education options and identification and documentation of knowledge and skills.

 

OBJECTIVES

The key objectives are:

  • To provide all adults with quality, professional and comprehensive information and guidance as a support to their education and learning;
  • To connect into a network as many local providers of educational and guidance services for adult as possible to ensure quality, comprehensive and coordinated activities of all subjects when offering information and guidance in adult education.

 

DESCRIPTION

The development and establishment of guidance centres for adult education started with definition of a theoretical model for adult education guidance centres – the AEGC model. The first guidance centres started operating in the years 2000-2001 (in accordance with the public tender of the then Ministry of Education and Sport). By 2017, 17 guidance centers had been established and operated to this extent until 2020.

Since 2021 guidance activities in adult education are a part of public services, provided by public 34 adult education centres and thus accessible to all adults in Slovenia. Two of three areas of guidance in adult education are interlinked in guidance centres: guidance fort he enrolment in education and continuation of education, and identification and documentation of knowledge and skills.

Guidance activities in guidance centres are aimed at all adults, especially those groups of adults in the local environment in difficult situations, who have difficulty accessing the education and who are less educated and less active in the field of education. The information and guidance are free for all adult users.

To make the guidance services accessible to the widest possible range of adults, the guidance centres also provide their services outside their main offices, i.e. in the field: so-called dislocated services, using the mobile guidance services and the Guidance centre Info points.
