Target Groups for the Programme
Nordplus Adult comprises a broad and diverse sector and is open to all types of organisations engaged in the field of adult education and learning in the eight participating countries and
the three autonomous regions.
Examples of organisation and institution types that can apply to Nordplus Adult are:
- Educational institutions for adult learners, including institutions with adult educator/
mentor programmes, institutions involved in special needs education for adults and
research-based institutions with experience and expertise in adult learning - Other organisations, including associations, public authorities, businesses, cultural
institutions (e.g. museums and libraries) and non-governmental organisations working with adult education and adult learning in informal and non-formal settings. - Although Nordplus Adult is not limited to established educational institutions, the initiative must address education and learning directed at “adult learners”. For example, the programme covers continuing vocational training (CVET), whereas projects involving basic vocational education and training (VET) must apply the Nordplus Junior programme.
