JOIN OUR SIG
The Adult Literacy and Adult Education (ALAE) SIG is one of the few places in AERA to connect with researchers working with adult populations. It also offers opportunities to be part of the community of adult education researchers and to meet people who work with or have connections to institutions that fund research, hire adult education researchers and publish adult education manuscripts.

Currently we are 148 members strong and looking to continue to build our vibrant scholarly community. So invite your colleagues and graduate students to join. Here’s how: join AERA or update your existing membership online through the AERA members site and select our Special Interest Group as one of your SIGs (note: we are ALAE SIG #4).
