- There are many locations for ACE courses - refer to their website for complete list.
Adult Community Education (ACE) are community-based learning programs for people wanting to take part in learning and further training, but who face social and economic barriers to formal participation. The learning programs are provided in a supportive community setting, making it especially valuable for hard to reach learners who may have ‘turned off’ learning. ACE programs are locally developed, locally delivered and locally owned.
ACE is funded by the South Australian Department for Innovation and Skills and involves hundreds of organisations and many hundreds of volunteers and trainers throughout South Australia based in community centres, local council organisations, neighbourhood houses, libraries and other community service centres
- Grants are available on application to eligible community-based organisations to support the delivery of adult learning activities in local areas.
- Broad program areas include:
- Personal Development
- Recreation
- Information Technology
- Job Seeking Skills
- Budgeting
- Life Skills
- Social Development
- Arts & Crafts
- Health & Wellbeing
- Literacy & Numeracy
- Cookery
- Communication Skills
