At the heart of Continuing Education are a wide range of university courses on the topics of Social Processes and Organisation; Education and Learning; Economy and Management; Peace and Political Education, as well as Psychotherapy and Counselling. In addition, courses and workshops are offered with a variety of time frames and content.
Dividing Initial Education/Training, Higher Education and Continuing Education into strictly discrete categories is neither possible nor meaningful. Quite the opposite is true, and the Alpen-Adria University strives to dovetail Higher and Continuing Education and Training in a way that meets the needs of a mixed student body, a large percentage of whom are already in employment. The Alpen-Adria-Universität is, in every respect, a university for adults in which the students are active partners in the shared learning process.
