About Adult Community and Further Education?
Whether you want to return to study, broaden your work skills or learn a creative art, you're sure to find a course to suit you. Courses are run by community-based organisations such as adult education centres, neighbourhood and community houses, as well as larger organisations such as the Centre for Adult Education and Adult Multicultural Education Services.

Courses are offered at all skill levels and range from computer training, literacy classes and VCE, to work place training and personal interest classes. Many community-based organisations offer a certificate or recognise qualification upon completion.
